Easy Unicode Paster - Portuguese
« on: September 02, 2008, 12:55 AM »
hey Eric,

your app looks quite promising and i'd like to add some diacritics that i use frequently. i'm attaching the INI file for Portuguese. (note: ΓΌ is used in Brazilian Portuguese only).

Thanks for the Portuguese character set! I've posted it with the Easy Unicode Paster executable at http://easyunicodepa...wikidot.com/download

I just wish there was some open source character sets that already have descriptions with the characters. Then, I could just parse all the data with EUP. It would make things go a lot faster. I would love to have the character set data from Microsoft's Character Map since it has descriptions for every character.

I'm not real sure what is going on with this.  V1.2 works great, since then I have had no success. It doesn't take focus ever, it somehow resets just about all the FARR settings!  :huh:  and well I haven't been able to use it, no real problem for me, 1.2 has all I need for 99.9% of what i want it for, but others may be experiencing something similar.

That is surprising that V1.4 is causing problems since it doesn't use global hooks anymore and just sits dormant when not in use. Is it a software conflict with FARR? I'll try and run them together and see what happens but I don't see how EUP could be writing over FARR's settings.

What OS do you have? What happens when you have Notepad open and try using EUP 1.4 to paste a unicode character into it?
I have EUP running on both Vista 32-bit and XP SP2 - 32-bit and having experienced any conflicts.

I've tested EUP 1.4 and FARR running at the same time and there are no problems on my machine. I can change the settings in FARR and there are no problems with them saving or getting overwritten.

ahhhh, it may have been that FARR had focus and I was clicking away wondering where it had all gone lol.  maybe it was a passing gremlin, or I was just doing it wrong (most likely) anyway it now works with notepad, and I'm too tired to test it again tonight.

i suggest that EUP supports different profiles so that users can quickly switch one type of charsets into another. maybe EUP could detect different types of INI files and display them in a dropdown list for the user to choose.
