Well, I can't sleep tonight so I tried to make my self sleepy by traversing the gtk+ source code from garnome. Found the modules/input subdir and hacked the Makefile and copied the modules of Cyrillic Input Method. After had figured out that the key sequences must be sorted in latin order for about an hour, then this is it, "The Arabic (Transliterated) Input Method for Gtk+" (tm). Alhamdulillah. To Owen: Could you please review this patch and commit to gnome cvs? (btw I have the gnome cvs account, I will commit it my self if you don't mind.) To Arabeyes folks: Could you guys review the key sequence I proposed in the patch. I'm not an Arab, and I don't know how you guys write transliterated Arabic. My approach is to follow some transliteration rule in Indonesian and grab some from Amr Diab song lyrics *-) eg. We (Indonesian) use 'h' for 'ح' (ARABIC LETTER HAH), but I see in the lyrics, the writer uses '7'. The key sequence is not yet fully completed to cover all ARABIC section in Unicode because I don't know what is the transliteration (eg. ARABIC LETTER TEH WITH RING, ARABIC LETTER BEEH, etc). Hope this is useful for all of us (especially the GNOME users here, hello Arafat *-) and thanks to Ahmad Kamal and Behdad Esfahbod for the inspiration. If you don't find this to be useful, maybe you can fork it to make a (true) Arabic Input Method which maps US keyboard to Arabic. -- Mohammad DAMT <mdamt at bisnisweb dot com> http://www.bisnisweb.net ASP.Net Linux web hosting
