Short: Type UTF-8 anywhere Author: Daniel Westerberg (daniel TA onyxsoft TOD se) Uploader: Daniel Westerberg Type: util/misc Version: 1.0 Architecture: m68k-amigaos This program lets you type UTF-8 everywhere (like in web browser forms for example). UTF-8 installs an input-handler into input.device that translates all characters above ASCII-128 (åäö¤®þ©µáàéèðßæ±×ç etc.) (i.e. ISO-8859-1 and possibly others) typed on the keyboard (or otherwise sent through input.device) to UTF-8 codes. This makes it possible to edit XML documents or other documents using UTF-8 character encoding. It also enables you to fill in web forms on Internet sites that only accept UTF-8. It may not be of that much use to native English people, or people requiring a full unicode set, like Asians, but most Europeans can benefit greatly from this. *** This program has been successfully tested on AmigaOS4-pre-upd2 Usage: ~~~~~~ UTF-8 can be started from CLI or Workbench. - From CLI: Ctrl-C = Quit Ctrl-D = Remove the handler but don't quit Ctrl-E = Re-install a removed handler - From WB: A requester will open and stay open until you quit the program. It lets you remove and re-install the handler. As this program usually is not used for long periods in time I thought that this requester was a good idea. If you require longer periods of UTF-8 writing I suggest you start UTF-8 from CLI. -- Other programs by Deniil 715! can be found on OnyxSoft homepage at: http://www.onyxsoft.se/ Feel free to mail me if you found bugs or have suggestions! .
