Add support for Python dictionaries to Plover.
A Python dictionary is simply a single module 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:
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.
- fix ./setup.py test handling
- update to Plover's latest API
