Hello, I found a perl module, Text::Unidecode that transliterate most unicode.
I also found that in the makeinfo patch, there are some transliterations that could be ameliorated. For some there are letters with an accent or a symbol added, and it seems to me that the transliterated symbol should be the letter without accent or symbol: 00C5: A better than AA 00D0: D better than DH 00D8: O better than OE 00E5: a better than aa 00F8: o better than oe This is an upper case Y, I believe: 0178: Y better than y The following are different in the patch that with Text::Unidecode. But I don't have a any idea on what is right. Please tell if you have an argument against or for a given transliteration, such that I can report to the Text::Unidecode author if there are errors. The first transliteration is from Text::Unidecode, the other is from the patch for makeinfo: 00DE Th -> TH (THORN) 0404 Ie -> IE 0407 Yi -> YI 0415 Ie -> E 0416 Zh -> ZH 0425 Kh -> H 0426 Ts -> C 0427 Ch -> CH 0428 Sh -> SH 0429 Shch -> SHCH 042a -> W 042c ' -> X 042e Iu -> yu 042f Ia -> YA 0433 gh -> g 0435 ie -> e 0445 kh -> h 0446 ts -> c 0447 ch -> ch 044a -> w 044c ' -> x 044f ia -> ya 04d7 ie -> IO -- Pat _______________________________________________ Texinfo home page: http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/ [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-texinfo
