Hello,
I have to say for examples of using liblouis from C then the programs
included with liblouis are probably good examples. Also if you want to
look through it then liblouisxml is another good one (this is how I
worked out how to use the lou_hyphenate function for creating my java
bindings).
As for using it from python, the doc strings give good details, there
doesn't seem to be any big surprises when I tried it. However may be a
document listing some examples might be good, as the examples could be
reused as doctests. Anyway here are some examples from my quick look at
it. These examples should work in doctest.
>>> import louis
Show a US grade2 translation of a unicode string with no typeform
information
>>> louis.translateString(['en-us-g2.ctb'], u'Hello world', None, 0)
u',hello _w'
Now do a translation using bold for the string
>>> louis.translateString(['en-us-g2.ctb'], u'Hello world',
[louis.bold]*11, 0)
u',hello __w'
There seems to be a bug there that bold indicator is not added to Hello.
Now do a translation using cursor position.
>>> louis.translate(['en-us-g2.ctb'], u'Hello world', None, 5, 0)
(u',hello _w', [0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6], [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7,
7, 7], 6)
See the doc string for louis.translate (IE. louis.translate.__doc__) for
details on each element of the returned tuple.
As lou_free is called automatically on exit for us we don't need to do
that ourselves.
The python bindings don't support back translation so I can't give
examples for that.
Hope these have been useful.

Samuel,
I'm not sure I understand what is wanted. However, for liblouis one can
find examples in lou_allround.c by searching for the string lou_

Hello,
A debian user requested some examples on how to use python-louis or
liblouis.
