Anyone using http://transliterate.com/ or Shibboleth or L3 keyboards?

MJ. Smith

I just want to know re: a wiki entry that I'm currently pointing towards http://www.logos.com/support/windows/L3/keyboards.  I just want to know what people are actually using.

I use Shibboleth. But I don't use it much.

I don't always type in original languages, but when I do, I use Shibboleth.*

Feel free to point out that this is PC only, and that Mac has Greek and Hebrew keyboards in the OS, ready to be turned on under System Preferences.

OS X 10.8 includes two Thai and three Tibetian (along with three Hebrew and two Greek for input sources):

I almost always use the L3 keyboards.  The only time I don't is when I copy and paste a block of text.

I've found Logos Greek and Hebrew keyboards very satisfactory for my regular, but not heavy duty use.

We have a saying in Swedish that translates something like He laughs best who laughs last. I think that would apply here.[:P] I presume you expected the answer to be 'non-existent'?

Why non-existent?  Windows has the keyboards too, but I prefer the Logos keyboards.  The Logos keyboards have a mostly phonetic layout which makes it easier to remember the key assignments.  I'm currently working on transcribing Oecumenius' Greek commentary on the Apocalypse into a PB.  That's somewhat heavy duty since it runs to ~250 pp.

Actually its only a little bit ahead of the Windows list. But Tibetan - Wylie is the important one. Terry Wylie was at the University of Washington.

Thanks all. I'll put the links in the wiki page.

We are way past it, but I use the Logos Keyboards actually. Once installed in Windows I can type and shift on the fly.  The Hebrew points are a bear to figure out at times though.
