It serves as a simple input method. When the user types an ASCII ;; key sequence, robin converts it into a string. This functionality ;; is most likely used to input non-ASCII characters. ;; 2. It converts existing buffer substring into another string. ;; This functionality is similar to the 1. above, but the input is ;; buffer substring rather than key strokes. ;; 3. It offers reverse conversion. Each character produced by a ;; robin rule can hold the original ASCII sequence as a ;; char-code-property. ;; How to define conversion rules ;; ------------------------------ ;; Each conversion rule belongs to a robin package. A robin package is ;; identified by a string called package name. Use robin-define-package ;; to define a robin package. ;; (robin-define-package NAME DOCTSTRING ;; (INPUT1 OUPUT1) ;; (INPUT2 OUPUT2) ;; ...) ;; NAME is a string identifying the robin package. It often starts with a ;; language name and followed by a method name. For example, ;; french-postfix, greek-prefix, etc. ;; DOCSTRING is a documentation string for the robin method. ;; Each INPUTn is a string. It represents a transliteration of the ;; corresponding OUTPUTn. ;; Each OUTPUTn is a string or a character that is to be inserted as the ;; result of conversion. ;; Neither INPUT* nor OUTPUT* are evaluated. Do not use a variable or a ;; function in those parts. Instead, use a string or character literal ;; directly. ;; If multiple rules have the same input pattern but different output ;; patterns, only the latest definition is effective. ;; Example ;; ------- ;; (robin-define-package "german-example" ;; "An example for German ;; AE -> Ä OE -> Ö UE -> Ü ;; ae -> ä oe -> ö ue -> ü ss -> ß ;; Repeat E or S to input itself. ;; AEE -> AE OEE -> OE UEE -> UE ;; aee -> ae oee -> oe uee -> ue sss -> ss" ;; ("AE" ?Ä) ;; ("OE" ?Ö) ;; ("UE" ?Ü) ;; ("ae" ?ä) ;; ("oe" ?ö) ;; ("ue" ?ü) ;; ("ss" ?ß) ;; ("AEE" "AE") ;; ("OEE" "OE") ;; ("UEE" "UE") ;; ("aee" "ae") ;; ("oee" "oe") ;; ("uee" "ue") ;; ("sss" "ss") ;; ) ;; Using robin as an input method ;; ------------------------------ ;; To use a defined robin package as an input method, register it with ;; the register-input-method function. For example, ;; (register-input-method ;; "german-example" ;; "german" ;; 'robin-use-package ;; "de" ;; "An example for German") ;; The first argument is the robin package name. ;; The second argument is the language environment for which this robin ;; package is used. ;; Use the symbol `robin-use-package' as the third argument. ;; The fourth argument is the prompt that appears in modeline when this ;; input method is active. ;; The fifth argument is a documentation string; it may or may not be ;; identical to the one that you specified in robin-define-package. ;; You can activate the robin input method by typing ;; C-u C-\ german-example RET ;; Just like a quail package, only C-\ suffices for subsequent ;; invocation. ;; Using robin as a buffer translator ;; ---------------------------------- ;; To transliterate buffer substring, use the following functions. ;; (robin-convert-buffer &optional name) ;; Convert the content of current buffer using a robin package. ;; NAME, if given, is a string specifying a robin package. If NAME is ;; not given or nil, the value of `robin-current-package-name' is used. ;; (robin-convert-region begin end &optional name) ;; Convert the region using a robin package. ;; NAME, if given, is a string specifying a robin package. If NAME is ;; not given or nil, the value of `robin-current-package-name' is used. ;; Reverse conversion ;; ------------------ ;; If the output pattern defined in a robin rule is a character, robin ;; gives to the character a char-code-property whose key is the symbol ;; representation of the robin package name and whose value is the input ;; pattern of that character. For example, with the "german-example" ;; definition above, ;; (get-char-code-property ?Ä 'german-example) => "AE" ;; etc. ;; If you do not want to assign a char-code-property to a character, use ;; a string of length one as the output pattern, e.g. ;; (robin-define-package "german-example2" ;; "Another example for German." ;; ("AE" "Ä") ;; ("OE" "Ö") ;; ...) ;; Then ;; (get-char-code-property ?Ä 'german-example2) => nil ;; etc. ;; If multiple input patterns in a robin package generate the same ;; character, the lastly used input pattern is given as the value of the ;; char-code-property. ;; There are two functions for reverse conversion. ;; (robin-invert-buffer &optional name) ;; Apply reverse conversion to the content of current buffer. NAME, if ;; given, is a string specifying a robin package. If NAME is not given ;; or nil, the value of `robin-current-package-name' is used. ;; (robin-invert-region begin end &optional name) ;; Apply reverse conversion to the region. NAME, if given, is a string ;; specifying a robin package. If NAME is not given or nil, the value of ;; `robin-current-package-name' is used. ;; Modifying an existing rule ;; -------------------------- ;; Use the robin-modify-package function to modify a rule already defined ;; in a Robin package. ;; (robin-modify-package name input output) ;; Change a rule in an already defined Robin package. ;; NAME is the string specifying a robin package. ;; INPUT is a string that specifies the input pattern. ;; OUTPUT is either a character or a string to be generated. ;; The name of the game ;; -------------------- ;; As stated in Murphy's law, it took longer than expected to develop the ;; very first version of Japanese input subsystem in NEmacs (Nihongo ;; Emacs). So the subsystem was named "TAMAGO", which is an acronym of ;; "TAkusan Matasete GOmennasai" (Sorry to have kept you waiting so ;; long). "Tamago" as a Japanese word means "egg", so the word "egg" was ;; also used for related filenames and function names. ;; Since it was designed to input CJK characters, Egg was rather big as a ;; subsystem. So later in Mule (Multilingual Enhancement to GNU Emacs), ;; we designed and implemented a smaller input subsystem. We had to give ;; it a name. "So, what's smaller than an egg?" "A quail egg, of ;; course." Therefore it was named "quail". ;; As time went by, quail became more and more complicated. That ;; tendency was inevitable as long as we support CJK input. However, if ;; we can limit ourselves to non-CJK characters, a much simpler ;; transliteration mechanism suffices. So I wrote "robin", whose name ;; was chosen because a robin is smaller than a quail. I could name it ;; "hummingbird" or "nightingale", but those spellings seemed too long. ;;; Code: (defvar robin-package-alist nil "List of robin packages.
