plover-fancytext 0.0.1

Silly output formatting plugin for Plover

This is a plugin for the open source stenography program Plover

Requires Plover version 4.0.0 or later

What it does

Allows you to use Plover to output text in various (mostly joke, mostly unicode) text formats

Examples:

• bubble: ⓑⓤⓑⓑⓛⓔ

• medieval: 𝕸𝖊𝖉𝖎𝖊𝖛𝖆𝖑

• fullwidth: ｖａｐｏｒｗａｖｅ

• sarcasm: wELl ThIs IS cONvEnIeNt

• upsidedown: ndsᴉpǝ poʍu

• zalgo: z̓ä́l̘g̩̚o͡t́èx͓͠ẗ̬

Installing

1. Open Plover

2. Navigate to the Plugin Manager tool

3. Select ‘plover_fancytext’ in the list

4. Click install

5. Restart Plover

6. In the Configure menu, navigate to the plugins section

7. Enable ‘plover_fancytext’ and apply

Usage

You’ll need to add Plover dictionary entries to toggle on/off the modes

The format is {:fancytext_set:<mode>} to turn on the mode and simply {:fancytext_set} to turn off any mode.

Here’s what I use (23*9 is more easily read as #TP*T):

{
"23*9": "{#}",
"23*9/PW-UB": "{:fancytext_set:bubble}",
"23*9/PH-ED": "{:fancytext_set:medieval}",
"23*9/TP-UL": "{:fancytext_set:fullwidth}",
"23*9/SA-RBG": "{:fancytext_set:sarcasm}",
"23*9/-UP": "{:fancytext_set:upsidedown}",
"23*9/STKPWA-L": "{:fancytext_set:zalgo}",
"23*9/23*9": "{:fancytext_set}"
}
