Support Basic I18N - select wordlist and layout

    • Status: Accepted
    • Priority: Normal (3)
    • Component: -
    We've had a request for basic I18N of layout (I assume which letters on keys) and wordlists, initially in Swedish.
    http://www.assembla.com/flows/show/cWfwA2ytir3zzUab7jnrAJ

    Some initial thoughts:

    I guess long as we use UNICODE (UTF8) and provide basic I18n features (ie how to select locale) it should be fine.
    I'm not yet sure on the impact to Tapir and how it fits in with it's current design. It looks doable but need to investigate more.

    Probably letter assignment to keys and a seed wordlist is all that is required? Locale should select both.

    Simon do you have any thoughts on how Tapir might handle this or anything we would need to do?
    Can you think of anything else?

    Finding suitable Swedish SAPI voices may be an issue for the end user.

    Not sure about implementation in Tapir. In it's basic form, disambiguation is very internationalizable, since it can be constructed just from word-freq list and key-char mappings, so hopefully this should be doable (?).
