Am I doing something wrong?

name:int!=* & name=* {set name='${name|ascii:} ${name}'


However for Syria or Greece I don't see any change. Is my command wrong, or is there maybe a bug in the patch?...

Hi Felix

Could there be a command like {set name='${mkgmap:trans:name}' }
That way one could build a map that is usable for people who do
understand the local script/language, and who don't by setting all names
e.g.
name=('name:en|name:int|mkgmap:trans:name''(name in e.g. Japanese Script) '

A quick patch attached which is a first attempt at such a thing.

Usage:

   ${name|ascii:}
   ${name|latin1:}

You need the colon there at the moment, but I will fix that if we go
with this syntax. An alternative syntax could be: ${name|transliterate:ascii}

Even better would of course be if there would be an additional function
to check if "name" is already in two scripts - this is often the case
for Japan or Thailand or Singapore... Dunno if that is easy to
implement. I hope/guess the above /mkgmap:trans:name/ would be easy, as
the code exists if you use e.g. --latin1.
