Replacer

by Lennsoft ·

Replaces characters or phrases 'on the fly'.

Description

I had a hard time when i tried to write Swedish text with an English keyboard. So i needed a very simple editor that allowed me to replace some of the useless characters on the English keyboard to those language specific ones i can't write without. So i made the Replacer, it just replaces characters or phrases with other ones. Nothing fancy at all. Then i thought that those keyboards on the cellphones are quite well,, 'useless' if you hapend to write in any other language then English. So i made a slightly customisabe widget out of the editor. I should work on most cellphones. And in the Opera browser. The editor saves the phrases you have altered with a cookie, so they will be remembered to the next time you use the editor. As usual Microsoft's Internet Explorer continues to make life problematic for us developers. This time i made a special version of the editor for IE. It's not as good as the others but it will work. -Next time?- I don't know. Maybe not. If you have IE, please use another if you can.

    Could you explain more about how to add more phrases. We use Indic Languages and it is pretty hard to shift Keyboards or use frequently used phrases using English Keyboard.
