Project supported by @nlnet keeps going!

@iced

I took #iced in crosshairs and want to make it the best #GUI for #Wayland input methods.
If there's interest, of course.

First results:

Back to #Wayland and input methods.

What's your favorite input method?

Cause for me it was the one on old #Nokia phones. I could type with my hands in my pockets! Handy in winter.

Tested with #cosmic and #GTK .

This is just the beginning. Actually useful stuff is coming in the future. #Mobile keyboards, #Chinese input is what it's for:

The Ideographic Research Group (IRG) is responsible for preparing and reviewing sets of CJK unified ideographs to be included in the Unicode Standard.

The IRG homepage is now including comprehensive lists of current and future IRG source prefixes...

중국어 한자 폰트에 없는 한국/일본 한자 생성은 정답 쌍이 많아서 좀더 풀기 쉬운 문제일 것 같다는 생각이 들기는 합니다. #CJK #폰트 #ai

Hello, I'm an open source software engineer in my late 30s living in #Seoul, #Korea, and an avid advocate of #FLOSS and the #fediverse.

I'm the creator of @fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework in #TypeScript, @hollo, an ActivityPub-enabled microblogging software for single users, and @botkit, a simple ActivityPub bot framework.

I'm also very interested in East Asian languages (so-called #CJK) and #Unicode. Feel free to talk to me in #English, #Korean (#한국어), or #Japanese (#日本語), or even in Literary Chinese (#文言文, #漢文)!

#introduction

Die japanische #Schrift besteht aus #Kanji, #Hiragana, #Katakana und #Romulaner. Romulaner sind kleine lateinische #Buchstaben, die in #Japan unter die #CJK zeichen geschrieben werden, weil die japaner selbst nicht verstehen, was sie da schreiben.

模糊，黏连，形成“墨点”，影影绰绰，似有花香。
这是一套不求清晰、无关锐丽的宋体字。笔形极其温厚，字面方正，重心放低，结构因复古而显新颖。
试图带回那时确实存在过的一种美好。

Adapted my first source for the #9front #troff instead of #OpenBSD’s Heirloom one… and now I can insert also .ps pictures, which oddly were not embedded under BSD. Next step could be to try and add a #CJK font and try to input #Japanese under 9front. Any hint? Is it possible to insert PDF marks under 9front, using Troff? Are they supported?

Video “LaTeX – Multilingual Unicode strings”, explaining how to deal with them without explicit markup. It combines #Hindi, #Japanese and #Arabic. With TeXLive fonts and also Noto fonts.

In the open-source application `Unicopedia Sinica`, both data files used for the `CJK Components` and the `CJK Related` utilities are now in a consistent JSON format with MIT license: `cjk-ids.json` and `cjk-related.json` respectively.

#introduction

@F2erron I previously used #emacs, but for some reason in my system a #multilingual document with several scripts (e.g., #Arabic, #Hebrew, #Devanagari, #CJK and #Tibetan) became deadly sluggish. As the maintainer of #babel, I found myself unable to work. I currently use #Notepad++, based on #Scintilla and programmable with #Lua, which I prefer to #Lisp. Add #TeXLive and #Git.

The latest version of the free BabelStone Han font (v.16.0.2), by Andrew West (魏安), has just been released. It includes more than 60,000 CJK unified ideographs, and supports a provisional set of 2,452 ideographic variation sequences (IVS) for 1,196 characters.

in designing uis, i've always hated a little the fact that our writing only really works along the horizontal axis

afaik #cjk ideograms can be written vertically and it's not a problem to read (if you know them ofc - me, i can't read them in any alignment)
