Annotation of researchv10no/cmd/ipa/README, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: The filter is in "ipa" -- it should be placed before any other
                      2: troff preprocessors that it interacts with (e.g. tbl).
                      3: 
                      4: An example of its use can be found in test_input, which is
                      5: processed via 
                      6: 
                      7:        ipa test_input | tbl | troff -mm | dcan
                      8: 
                      9: 
                     10: The source for the crucial part of the filter is ipa_trans.lex --
                     11: it would be easy to modify the ascii-to-ipa mapping (e.g. for arpabet,
                     12: or for a different language).
                     13: 
                     14: The command "ipa_key" will print a copy of the font map and
                     15: of the ascii-to-ipa mapping designed for English.
                     16: 
                     17: Notice that other use of font positions 5 and 6 will tend not to work.
                     18: There isn't any easy and general way around this problem, it seems.
                     19: 
                     20: At the moment, "ipa_trans" does not check that a final delimiter
                     21: is ever found.
                     22: 
                     23: The ipa fonts are to found in the usual places (e.g. /usr/can/font,
                     24: /usr/jerq/font, /usr/lib/font/dev202).
