Those of you that are interested in Tengwar, though, check out http://www.opoudjis.net/dist/lojbanmodes.zip These are Tengwar modes, intended for use with the PC program _The Tengwar Scribe_ (http://user.tninet.se/~xof995c/tengscribe.htm), used for mapping ASCII to Tengwar. The four modes included are: lojban.mod: Eric Raymond's (available from the site) lojban.elron.1.1.mod: My version of Elron's simple mode lojban.elron.3.mod: My version of Elron's preferred mode (with matres lectionis) lojban.nick.mod: My own mode, based on Elron's simple mode, but with the change to apostrophes just mentioned. The program is slow and PC-specific; had I time, I'd write a Perl script, to enable the two Unicode outputs. But I don't. (Not right now, anwyay. And I know full well an IPA-to-Lojban scheme is much more pressing than this...) Feel free to edit the modes and let me know, if you think I've misconstrued something. Elron, that means you. :-) The treatment of capitalisation is still Eric's; the program in question is not stateful enough to do much better. With the flipped s Elron uses, the diacritics for s will probably have to shift to the right. I owe some responses here, but not tonight I'm afraid. It'll be good to see my house before 4 AM! :-) -- == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == Nick Nicholas, Breathing {le'o ko na rivbi fi'inai palci je tolvri danlu} nicholas@uci.edu -- Miguel Cervantes tr.
