It is based on the KOI8-R character set # which to our knowledge is the most used in Russia. # As the Russian cyrillic definition conflicts with the latin definition, some # decisions had to be taken. Russians need to type both latin for the command # prompt and cyrillic while reading and writing documents and mail. # In the following, latin letters are quoted with apostrophes like in 'a', and # cyrillic letters are enclosed within brackets like in [a]. # Dot 1 in the cyrillic definition is the cyrillic letter which looks and # sounds like 'a'. The problem is that in the KOI8-R character set, there is # both a latin 'a' and a cyrillic [a]. In decimal, their character numbers are # 97 and 193 respectively. To handle conflicts like these, we have prioritized # which characters are most important to match the standard. # RULES: # 1. All cyrillic characters must follow the Russian standard. KOI8-R character # 193 [a] must be dot-1, and so on. # 2. Capital cyrillic letters have dot 7 on. # 3. The latin alphabet is implemented to follow the international standard # except it has dot 8 on. # 4. Capital latin letters have dots 7 and 8 on. # 5. Numbers are defined as in the American standard. This means dot-2 for # number '1', and so on. This will conflict with the cyrillic comma which is # also dot-2. # 4. Special characters like !"#¤%&/()=? follow the American standard if # possible. # 2. Control characters are often used on Linux. These are not very well # implemented. More work should be done. # Comments from Russians are very welcome as neither Hans Schou nor Dave Mielke # understand a single word in Russian. include letters-cyrillic.tti include letters-latin-dot8.tti include numbers-nemeth.tti include punctuation-alternate.tti # generated by ttbtest: charset=koi8-r char \u2219 ( 23 8) # 95 ⢆ ∙ [BULLET OPERATOR] char \xB0 ( 23 567 ) # 9C ⡶ ° [DEGREE SIGN] char \xB2 ( 2 6 8) # 9D ⢢ ² [SUPERSCRIPT TWO] char \xB7 ( 345 78) # 9E ⣜ · [MIDDLE DOT] char \xA9 ( 34 678) # BF ⣬ © [COPYRIGHT SIGN] include common.tti
