Naija Type Keyboard Change History

June 2024

  • v61 m̃ easier on touch, ḅ underdot and line on desktop and touch, ɦ on touch. 105 languages known covered.

  • v60 Doc updates, including assessment of more languages covered.

  • v59 Missing flicks and defaults added. Now every popup key should have a sensible default (underdot on i e o) and also an upflick shape variant. Diagonal accent flicks had been missing from shift keys.

  • v58 Added a load of (Requires Keyman 17) diagonal flicks for accents and down-flicks for all numbers on top row, side flicks on space bar and full stop (underdot), up-flicks for common alternate shapes. This should make use of the keyboard faster for power users. Added varying hopefully helpful defaults for the longpress menus. Updated the green hints. Updated documentation substantially.

May 2024

  • v57 Added 00; and 00/ > empty set especially for discourse work. Fixed defects in the Touch Keyboard text output (wrong layer selected) which stopped some combinations working in the shift layer. Began adding number down-flicks on top row.

April 2024

  • v52-56 Added Cicipu slash o.

July 2023

  • v50 Fix key cap for longpress menu key

October 2022

  • v49 Removed deprecated language features. Added Alt alternative (Alt/backslash) for vertical line above letter. Re-ordered code.
  • v48 vertical line and overdot added to diacritics. Alt/ShiftAlt Alternatives to underline, overline, underdot and overdot combining chars added, and capital Q popup on touch keyboard. Also v popup for combining diacritics.
  • v47 ctrl-alt ] or hyphen to produce [ and = in case one set of keys stops working (obscure keyboard problems!)
  • v46 Compensate for Word etc autocurling the apostrophe into U+2018 or U+2019 by having a starting rota for those that ends in Saltillo

September 2022

  • v45 Doc adjustments, modifier letter vertical line and saltillo added for glottals, and upside down ? and !. Code refactoring. Added Tugbiri.
  • v41 Moved Naira left and stay on numeric layer, joined Hash inside it, and added space bar. Reduced unnecessary longpress items. Added more currency symbols in numeric layer. Added s underdot in touch. Added Tugbiri, Kanuri, Igala languages.

August 2022

  • v40 Using the new Keyman 15 start of sentence detection, improved welcome docs

  • v39 Added more BCP 47 languages to package, tweaked icon for visibility*

  • v38 Saltillo (letter-like apostrophe) added.

  • v37 Change double space behaviour (allow lots of spaces again not turning all into full stop then space), and fix bug that stopped enter working in some contexts after a full stop. Small caps mode (Experimental): Double = to start small caps mode and same again to turn it off. It also turns off after a hyphen or space.
