As a Python module

Convert SRO to syllabics:

>>> sro2syllabics('nêhiyawêwin')
'ᓀᐦᔭᐍᐏᐣ'
>>> sro2syllabics('write nêhiyawêwin')
'write ᓀᐦᐃᔭᐍᐏᐣ'

Convert syllabics to SRO:

>>> from crk_orthography import syllabics2sro
>>> syllabics2sro('ᐊᒋᒧᓯᐢ')
'acimosis'
>>> syllabics2sro(' → ᒪᐢᑫᑯᓯᕽ  ᑎᕒᐁᕀᓬ ')
' → maskêkosihk  tireyl '

On the command line

crk_orthography installs two command line programs:

$ echo "minôs" | sro2syllabics
ᒥᓅᐢ
$ sro2syllabics my-file-in-sro.txt
ᒥᓅᐢ

For more information over its options, type:
