Hello John and Christian,
first I am terribly sorry for late response, but I got quite busy recently.
I have trouble using lou_translate. See example output for letters "a", "b"
and "í":
a
Translation dot patterns:
1
b
Translation dot patterns:
12
í
Translation dot patterns:
3-12567-1356-124-124-124-124-124-124-14-25-3-3-12567-1356-124-124-124-124-124-124-1-145-3
The ASCII letters are translated OK, but the non-ASCII ones get completely
screwed. So I think I am not testing properly.
The way I tested was to start lou_translate, then enter "t" and answer
"Cz-Cz-g1.utb", then enter "m" and answer "y" for all 6 questions. Then enter
"f" and answer "y". Then enter "r" and translate letters "a", "b", and "í".
Note that I tried some other combinanions in the "m" (mode setup) step,
also tried other non-ASCII letters than "í", but to no avail.
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
Best regards,
Boris
