I have submitted some code on the main version, to add Multiplication Sign, Wave Dash and Corner Brackets:
And also on extradev version, to allow navigation in 2D (handling up and down arrow keys).
And also the same Multiplication Sign, and CJK Wave Dash and Corner Brackets, but in CJK category (not a country), so it looks a little bit strange, sorry.
Maybe you would come with an idea, before I start making your script going in weird directions:
Alternatively, instead of at the end and/or in a separate CJK category:
I can put the Wave Dash with the other dashes (EN, EM) and
I can put the Corner Brackets with the other surrounding same meaning punctuations, like Double Quotes
Our I can put them in a JP category, where they are most used for MB, I think.
I have to check the commits, but using āJPā as code is the right way. You should now see a Japan flag for your section ^^ (hopefully, or maybe I didnāt pushed that change, canāt remember).
Also I think itās time to write what I hope to do with the future version.
First, a new look for the menu. Mainly only the chars displayed, plus a description and magnifying when moving the mouse over the char. That will allow having more chars displayed at once.
But thereās also a āhiddenā plan. I want to propose optional ālanguage packsā (this is why I introduced the country code) that would be downloaded directly from the repository, with periodic check for update. Diacritics, Greek and even your new JP pack would be optional by the end.
This would be done using a configuration menu (not yet implemented).
The config menu would also add some more functions, as:
Add or hide chars to a language pack
Create custom language pack
Save and restore configuration
As you can see, thereās a lot to do to achieve what I want to propose. Will be a long journeyā¦
Next step for me, write the full ToDo list, with priorities. Hopefully this weekendā¦
@jesus2099 I committed you PRs, and fixed the pack name for JP in extradev. You may want to update your repository and try
Btw, thereās some glitches in 2D navigation, for up and down now, but itās really better than it was Fixing this wonāt be my first priority, I want to start with the settings window for additional language pack.
Then I have to take care about language updates, and I want to rework some pieces of the code.
After that, I may rework the menu a bit (itās ugly IMO). And finally the rest of the settings: hide/add characters, save/restore, and so on.
I didnāt see the whole discussion about the extradev branch, and created a PR against master this morning with some small changes to make it work in Safari as well and update the look of the menu to be more MB-ish.
I noticed some issues on apostrophe since some time:
I import a release from Discogs, apply the script then when I press the āGuess caseā from MBz it switch back the apostrophe to basic straight one (" ā " to " ā ").
