[wishlist] cyrillic-chuvash input method |

Mon, 12 Dec 2022 17:15:43 +0100 (CET) |
Please include a Chuvash (CV) input method (the one attached or something
similar) in Emacs. I've created it based on "russian-computer" input method. I
use it in my init.el and it is working, though I'm new to Emacs and somewhat
unsure where and how it should properly be placed (inside other cyrillic ones,
likely).
It is almost all cyrillic, however Çç characters are Latin (letter c with
cedilla), because there is actually no cyrillic С with a cedilla in Unicode.
There are Ҫҫ (cyrillic letter es with descender), however they are unreliable
as they often look wrong in practice:
• Bashkir, Chuvash
• letterforms with right hooks are preferred, although occasional variants with
left hooks occur
• in Chuvashia, letterforms identical to or similar in form to 00E7 ç regularly
occur
(from Unicode PDF on Cyrillic range)
Maybe it's simply a misnomer and half the world got it wrong, or not. I have no
idea.
chuvash.el

OK, I've now installed this on the emacs-29 branch, using the Cyrillic
characters, and I'm marking this bug done.
Thanks.
