#26: proposal: move to using IMEs for ASCII/Latin input

#26: proposal: move to using IMEs for ASCII/Latin input -----------------------+------------------- Reporter: petersen | Owner: i18n@… Type: meeting | Status: new Priority: major | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+------------------- = phenomenon = Currently in Fedora for languages with non-Latin scripts we normally switch between a xkb layout as an input source for inputting Latin/ASCII characters and an IME for inputting native characters. ibus-kkc and ibus-libpinyin both have Latin ("English") input methods. I think it is more natural for primary users of these IMEs to use them by default for Latin character input. So I want to suggest that for F21 we could default Japanese input to use only the kkc IME and Chinese to libpinyin IME, ie no additional keyboard layout source would be needed. Multilingual users might still need an additional keyboard layout input source and that is still fine. Other IMEs might also be extended to support Latin input modes in the future: initially we could do it for those default IMEs that support it. For example I am already using ibus-kkc for both Latin and Japanese input and it works well - I toggle easily between direct and ja input. Perhaps the only change needed for the current IMEs with Latin mode might be input mode state caching, ie using the same mode as last time. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/26> Fedora Internationalization <http://fedorahosted.org/i18n/> Fedora i18n Project

This is my understanding. Yes, do agree. Supporting both knda and knd2 is challenging. But we have to try for it since Lohit fonts are used as a Web fonts as well and it should render correctly on most of the platform. I think by Alpha release we will have better picture.

Lohit2: Improvement plans for Lohit-Kannada !!
by Pravin Satpute 23 Oct '13

23 Oct '13

Hi All, First some update on existing activities of lohit2 project, planning for Lohit-Devanagari Beta and Lohit-Gujarati Alpha release by the next week. Regarding Lohit-Kannada other than same improvements for other script fonts like 1. Following AGL while renaming lohit-gujarati 2. Feature file separate as done in lohit-devanagari 3. Supporting "knda" and "knd2" Opent type tag 4. Thorough testing with Harfbuzz and Uniscribe (will test with Windows XP as well to make sure webfonts will render correctly everywhere) There are some more things needs attention 1. Removing unnecessary glyphs. Bug for that already reported by Shriramana [a] 2. Some other needed attentions are [b][c] From designing perspective, i dont know why each glyph in Lohit Kannada carries negative witdh, see right bearing. It will be good if we can get rid of it. It will be appreciated if someone can help me to fix this. These are the points from myside, if anything missing or need attention please let me know. On the top of this need lots of help from you all for testing activity. Development is going on https://github.com/pravins/lohit2 repo. Once get ready for alpha, will merge it main lohit repo. Best Regards, Pravin Satpute a. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=825115 b. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=825081 c. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827516
