Tibetan Unicode Keyboard
Screen keyboards in MS Excel and in Java for typing Tibetan characters
A Tibetan character is formed by stacking the middle (core) character with lower character stack(s) and upper stack. The tools in this package has been tested to work well in Windows 10 and above. The Java version is in the project titled Tibetan Java Keyboard. The MS Excel version does not work on Excel operating in MacOS. The Excel version uses Excel macros and VBA codes. One needs to Enable Macro to allow it to work. The motivation for this project is due to old proprietary Tibetan fonts not displaying properly on different systems. However, with the Tibetan unicode fonts being available and maturing in recent years, it makes documents typed in Tibetan unicode fonts readable on different operating systems. With the number of core characters, lower stack characters, upper stack characters and symbols in Tibetan language is difficult to be handle with traditional physical keyboard. A screen keyboard will make the creation of Tibetan characters more user friendly. -

IPA keyboard layout (Windows)
An IPA keyboard layout for linguists (usable only in Windows)
This is an IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) keyboard layout, made for linguists by linguists. There are very few tools for comprehensive IPA input available, some of those are strictly online, some of them cost money, and others yet are difficult to install and operate. I tried to make a free to use, free to distribute IPA keyboard for linguists to use both at home / in the office, and during fieldwork. So far the project is in its preliminary stages, as I have not received any major feedback, but if it interests other people I will continue developing it. Nevertheless, the input is fully usable, and contains a large number of IPA characters (almost all of them, in fact), and several diacritics. -

PerWindowLayout
Keeps per window keyboard layout under X11
Sometimes you want to setup switching keyboard layouts using X server -- because there is no DE plugin, or it's broken, or lacks needed functionality. You can easily configure X server to switch keyboard layouts, but I could not find way of keeping layout for each window separately using only X server. Hence this package. Tested under xfce4.
