Encoder / Decoder #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The character encoder/decoder is appended.
Tested and functioning on Linux. Highly uncertain if it would work in Windows 
(I am almost sure that it will not work, but who knows).
The executables are compiled in Ubuntu. Should run on other flavors to, I guess.

Do you mean that for Swedish you need more than 6 extra chars?

Would it be possible to have the script in python? With the lng parameter given 
in an option, something like:
./encode se
./encode fr

No, only six are needed. The other ones were thought as placeholders for the 
French characters. ,  I guessed that you would use a common extension bitmap 
for all languages. In that case all extension characters should have had a 
unique ID,  and I guessed that you would place the French ones after the 
Swedish. 
Since you choose to use a separate bitmap per language,  there has to be 
separate tables also. 

I have never written, or even seen Python code, but I can give it a go. How 
hard can it be?

Yes there are 2 reasons:
- the swedish chars that you use are not used in french, then it's not good for 
us to have them in first!
- to save flash!

Python, yes, very easy it's a good occasion to give a try :)

OK, I now have the scripts working in Python. It was very easy. Tested on 
Python 2.7 in both Windows and Linux, and surprisingly enough the scripts 
worked the same way on both OSes.
In the process I found a mistake in se.h. I will add that as a new issue, since 
the original one is closed.

I just uploaded a "transcode.py" script which is the merge between the 2 
scripts above. Thanks for your help!

../util/translate.py ./translations/se.h se      => ./translations/se.h.se
../util/translate.py ./translations/se.h.se se   => ./translations/se.h
