So, I very quickly (as in an arbitrary decision needs to be made within the next 36 hours) need names for all of the keys. I've elected to use the phrasing {la'e .a bu batke fi lo nu co'e} because it's short and gets the point across in a character-limited space. If this is absolutely verbotten, please let me know, but otherwise don't nitpick. I see
http://www.lojban.org/tiki/Keyboard+key+names contains some of the keys, but not all of them. So, the ones I specifically need and on which I would like a quick consensus are:
canlubu
cliva bu
left, right, up, down buttons - zunle, pritu....bu ?
tarmi bu???
left control
right control
sazri bu...
Alt + left = stika bu joi/jo'u zunlebu ?
cfari bu
trixyvimcu bu
definitely {setca bu}, although will probably be a conflict with "paste" function which is also {setca} in computer sense.
vimcu bu
This is not "page up" but rather "large space up". However, as we haven't decided on how to say "page" in general (no matter if it's made of paper or displayed on your screen, I'd rather stick with {te tcidu} and {se tcidu} depending on situation) let it be {galtu zei ckupau bu}
{dizlo zei ckupau bu}
krasi bu. {zdani bu} is kinda metaphor.
{fanmo bu} if {fanmo} = {to'e krasi}
/ (keypad)
* (keypad)
- (keypad)
+ (keypad)
. (keypad)
enter (keypad)
not a clue.
Numlock - number switch, na'uvra bu?
Should use the same gismu as for "shift". tarmi vraga???
lacpu bu
.ii {denpa bu} has already another meaning!
sisti bu?
1 (keypad)
2 (keypad)
3 (keypad)
4 (keypad)
5 (keypad)
6 (keypad)
7 (keypad)
8 (keypad)
9 (keypad)
0 (keypad)
again not a clue. Something like {nonckiku bu} etc....?
"gamepad"
joystick right
joystick left
Sorry. No ideas.
Help is muchly appreciated and I will try to compensate you in some manner for your assistance.
As a random side-bit, I found this in my search and thought it was interesting. Anybody try it? I'm going to once I force myself to take a break from translating.
