This software provides support for Glagolitic script, complying with Unicode 4.1 standards, allowing users to type with a Glagolitic keyboard. It can be used for various purposes, including language studies and cultural preservation.
The Glagolitic keyboard layout (keylayout) is a highly anticipated addition that provides support for the oldest Slavonic alphabet, a feature which had been missing for a long time. It is included in the latest release of Unicode 4.1 and follows the Cyrillic-qwerty, or Russian phonetic, mapping.
Given that it is a beta release, developers encourage users to provide feedback on the possible areas for improvements, which mainly involve the location of some characters. To make the most of this package, it is necessary to select a unicode-savvy application, such as TextEdit, Pages, Mellel, or Nisus.
At present, there is only one font available that follows the encodings in Unicode 4.1, which is the Dilyana font designed by Ralph Cleminson. The developer has given permission to distribute this font together with the keylayout, but it is important to note that you are not permitted to sell or modify it.
