[Kobo Clara HD] Romanian UI keyboard
Hello!
Is there any patch for adding Romanian characters to the UI keyboard of a Kobo Clara HD? I have managed to add a Romanian dictionary to it, but I am still not able to search for words containing the caracters Ș or Ț. Thank you in advance for your help!! |

You might want to look at the Instructions for patching firmware 4.26.16704 thread in the Kobo Developer's Corner subforum. The libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml has patches for Cyrillic, Greek and Bulgarian keyboards which you might look at using as the basic for a Romanian keyboard to replace the extended Latin keyboard.
Download the patch file from the link in the first message in that thread, unzip it and take a look through the files. |

After some time I have realized that there are 2 types of characters: Ș vs Ş & Ț vs Ţ. The second ones are recognized by Kobo, but unfortunately, the ones used in the dictionary I have are the first ones, so if I search a word using the last ones, the search would fail to find the respective word. I have thought that I furtherly have two variants: either change all the Șs into Şs and the Țs into Ţs in the dictionary I have, or make the other pair visible on the keyboard. For the first one I would need a StarDict editor. Do you know one that I could use? For the second one, which seems much easier to do, I have no idea of how I should proceed.. All the information you have regarding this, I'd be grateful to receive. |

Edit: I was so surprised by your explanation that downloaded a couple of books in Romanian and looked - the correct symbols are used there. You are clearly confusing something. Or I downloaded it wrong and not there. Last edited by Semwize; 03-29-2021 at 08:20 AM. |

Since it is correct U + 0218 Ș U + 0219 ș U + 021A Ț U + 021B ț And you do the opposite and call on others to do it. This will lead to more confusion in the future. When all the publishers (sites) fix it - and they will definitely do it. https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipe...hi_și_noi Massively, you can fix it, for example, using kepubify from geek1011 or other programs, I do not know what format of books you are using. In general, the publisher should deal with this, if a single standard has been adopted in Romania. That is why I find it strange that you have such books. And changing dictionaries, confusing more and more, is generally a fail, IMHO. There is a single standard. And both books, and dictionaries, and reading devices must comply with this standard. Otherwise, such confusion will grow for a long time. What is not good, do you agree? For yourself, you can change anything and how you want. But for other Romanian users, your changes may be completely wrong, and even harmful. That is why 0219 and 021B are used on site dexonline.ro, not your version.

You have already posted a bunch of posts, but apparently have never opened epub - there is garbage inside. This can be seen even by the size of epub and mobi files. |
