## About

Keyboard created for the transcription of Ottoman sources using the IJMES transcription tables for Windows.
Keyboard created for the transcription of Ottoman sources using the IJMES transcription tables for Windows. The keyboard can also be used for IA input as QhoD changed their main transcription ruleset to the *İslâm Ansiklopedisi* style.

The input method is derived from the standard tr-TR QWERTY Turkish keyboard, with a few additions accessible via combinations with the Right-Alt <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> key to add diacritics (glyph coverage see below).

In the Alt-Gr/Alt-Cmd/Right-Alt shift state, we add *dead keys*:

- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>,</kbd>: Combining dot below ( ̣, works with HhKkSsTtZz)
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>.</kbd>: Combining dot above ( ̇, works with HhSsTtZz)
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>.</kbd>: Combining dot above ( ̇, works with GgHhSsTtZz)
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>-</kbd>: Combining macron below ( ̱, works with NnZz). **Note**: As MSKLC is not able to create combined characters that do not have a single codepoint in Unicode, S̠s̠ has to be typed as <kbd>S</kbd> + <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>-</kbd> + <kbd>space</kbd>
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>-</kbd>: Combining breve below (The same key combo is used for Hh with breve below Ḫḫ)
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>l</kbd>: Combining macron above ( ̄, works with AaEeİIiıOoUuYy)

And normal keys

- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>ä</kbd> for <kbd>ʿ</kbd>
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>ä</kbd> for <kbd>ʿ</kbd> (<kbd>ä</kbd> German keyboard space where US has <kbd>'</kbd>)
- <kbd>Alt-Gr</kbd> + <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>ä</kbd> for <kbd>ʾ</kbd>
