Sheek Bakrii Saphaloo Qubee Keyboard
Sheek Bakrii Saphaloo Qubee Keyboard
Introduction
This is a keyboard for typing the Sheek Bakrii Saphaloo script in a style very similar to typing in Qubee. Qubee rules for typing Oromo language sounds are followed to the maximum extent possible, in a few cases where the Sheek Bakrii Saphaloo script adds additional letters for the sounds of other langauges (Arabic for example), a small change from Qubee is introduced. See the typing manual for full details of the typing rules.
The pdf manual reviews typing in full detail.
Caveats
This is an *exerimental* keyboard that will not be compatible with a future standard for the Sheek Bakrii Saphaloo script. The font that the keyboard relies on, the _Athinkra: Sheek Bakri Saphaloo_ font, uses a temporary encoding space that would change under a final standard for the script. The implication is that documents composed with this typeface will be incompatible with the anticipated international standard and will either need to be recomposed on converted into the standard encoding.
