π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so picture this, bestie: you're living your multilingual life (say Russian + English, the classic combo), and mid-sentence your fingers just... forget which layout they're in. you typed a whole word in the wrong alphabet. tragedy. π
that's literally where xneur comes in.
- in auto mode, she can detect the language of the word you were trying to type, automatically switch keyboard layouts, and convert that word into the correct keyboard layout. she just knows. π
- in manual mode, she lets you convert the last typed word β or some selected text β into another keyboard layout with hotkeys. your hands, your call. π
the whole main idea of this utility is similar to that of Punto Switcher for MS Windows, iykyk.
right now xneur supports Armenian, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Czech, Georgian, German, Greek, English, Estonian, French, Kazakh, Lithuanian, Latvian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Ukrainian and Uzbek languages. stay tuned for more... π
