This page presents a collection of keyboards supporting Unicode transliterations, implementing a consistent set of input conventions across operating systems.

Custom keyboard layouts are not hard to create or install onWindows, Mac OS X or Unix's X11. However, there are some technicalissues which make it impossible to create a single keyboard layoutwhich works the same across all systems.

The design strategy adopted here makes commonly used characterseasily accessible in keyboards which are adapted from the standardnational keyboards. This means that for much work it will becomfortable to use the transliteration keyboard, and users can easilyswitch to the standard national keyboard when necessary.

Core Characters

On Windows and Mac OS X, the core characters are all reached usingthe comma as a prefix key (dead key); for a list, see the Unicode page.

Accented Vowels

These are usually available in various ways from the nationalkeyboards. In addition, we define a set of fallback keyboardcombinations to provide access to the accented vowels as follows:

  • ,-vowel = vowel + macron
  • ctrl+,-vowel = vowel + circumflex

Determinatives

Cuneiform For Mac Keyboard

In ATF, the correct markup for determinatives is to enclose them incurly brackets. In word-processing contexts the superscript styleshould be used.

The commonest ATF determinatives can be written with the following keyboard combinations:

  • ,-d = {d}
  • ,-f = {f}
  • ,-k = {ki}
  • ,-l = {luâ‚‚}
  • ,-m = {m}

Limited support for superscript determinatives is included in theOracc fonts (this currently only applies to Desconsolata). This supportis not intended for general purpose applications, but is provided forthe creation of manuscript matrices where alignment is important andthe use of a tabular layout is not an option for plain text files.These superscript characters are mostly available from the semi-colondeadkey, with a few reached from the colon deadkey.
