Plover Python dictionary

Add support for Python dictionaries to Plover.

Usage

A Python dictionary is simply a single UTF-8 source file with the following API:

# Length of the longest supported key (number of strokes).
LONGEST_KEY = 1

# Lookup function: return the translation for <key> (a tuple of strokes)
# or raise KeyError if no translation is available/possible.
def lookup(key):
    assert len(key) <= LONGEST_KEY
    raise KeyError

# Optional: return an array of stroke tuples that would translate back
# to <text> (an empty array if not possible).
def reverse_lookup(text):
    return []

For example save the following code to show_stroke.py:

Note: make sure the file encoding is UTF-8!

LONGEST_KEY = 2

SHOW_STROKE_STENO = 'STR*'

def lookup(key):
    assert len(key) <= LONGEST_KEY, '%d/%d' % (len(key), LONGEST_KEY)
    if SHOW_STROKE_STENO != key[0]:
        raise KeyError
    if len(key) == 1:
        return ' '
    return key[1]

Then add it to your dictionaries stack as you would a normal dictionary.

Now, if you stroke STR*, then the next stroke will be shown verbatim (untranslated), e.g. -T STROEBG TP-R KW-GS STROEBG KR-GS S STR* STROEBG outputs: the stroke for "stroke" is STROEBG.

Release history
