Description Ratikant Sutar 2020-01-29 23:44:07 UTC
Description:
to input text in different languages other than european, we can just type two or three control characters which would change the unicode entry point for that language. and then type in text using some multibyte romanized encoding for that language. it would be fast for multilanguage documents.

Actual Results:
say you want to write "στι Щщ କଆ ЭЮ а प्रभृति". i use "/gk/sti /ru/Schhschh /or/kaaa /ru/YeYu /en/a /sn/prabhruti" to create a utf8 text stream. here /gk/=greek language control, /ru/=russian etc. if some control sequence like those be implemented along with transliteration of scripts using roman letters, it would save a lot of time entering text.

Expected Results:
hope it explains.


Reproducible: Always
