WEBVTT

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:05.680
hello

00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:10.080
can you hear me yes I can awesome

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:12.400
all right so we have a couple minutes

00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:13.200
and

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:15.200
uh it seems a couple questions as well

00:00:15.200 --> 00:00:17.680
so take it away

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:20.000
okay I won't share my screen unless

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.640
needed um

00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:25.439
looks like question one advantages

00:00:25.439 --> 00:00:27.599
advantages of using Emacs input methods

00:00:27.599 --> 00:00:31.119
over something like x compose

00:00:31.119 --> 00:00:32.559
well there's a there's a couple things

00:00:32.559 --> 00:00:34.320
there one is

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.360
um Emacs is cross platform so

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:39.520
writing this input mode for Emacs means

00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.520
if I do end up using

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.559
a non-free operating system I can still

00:00:44.559 --> 00:00:46.480
use Emacs I can still type

00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:49.920
in the way that I would like to um

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:52.800
I did look in I don't I actually don't

00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.640
know what x compose is

00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:56.719
I tried looking for it on my system I

00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.680
could not find it anywhere

00:00:59.680 --> 00:01:02.399
I did actually go and figure out how to

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:02.879
write a

00:01:02.879 --> 00:01:06.080
x11 keyboard layout so that's also

00:01:06.080 --> 00:01:07.040
available

00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.840
in the repository that has the Emacs

00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:11.920
package as well

00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.720
and it is handy to be able to have that

00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:15.920
so I can type in

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:21.200
other applications besides Emacs

00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.479
but the main advantages for Emacs was it

00:01:24.479 --> 00:01:25.119
was actually

00:01:25.119 --> 00:01:27.439
much easier to discover and much easier

00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:28.560
to

00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.439
manipulate and get feedback you know as

00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:33.040
I was developing it like I could just

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.360
evaluate the coil package

00:01:35.360 --> 00:01:37.200
try it out and see if it works when I

00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:39.680
was trying to do the x11 inputs I'd have

00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:40.560
to log out

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.799
read and and relog in again to get

00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:43.759
things read and

00:01:43.759 --> 00:01:46.240
it was you know it doesn't have that

00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:46.799
beautiful

00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:50.560
interactivity the way that Emacs does so

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:53.040
for me it was a good place to start um

00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:54.960
especially because

00:01:54.960 --> 00:01:56.640
I had never done anything like this

00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:58.079
before like developing

00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:00.079
something that felt low level you know

00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.320
like a keyboard input

00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:06.399
I hope that answers your question

00:02:06.399 --> 00:02:08.479
question two can you give us a demo of

00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:09.280
you typing in

00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:12.400
either lakota and input method sure

00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:19.599
um share my screen now

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:21.520
of course I always have to select which

00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:32.239
one

00:02:32.239 --> 00:02:36.560
okay so control backslash opens the

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:37.840
input modes

00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.000
although when you've selected one you

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:41.920
have it already so

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:45.680
uh yeah wash day

00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:48.319
that's it is good washed it so this is

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:50.000
the suggested lakota

00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.360
orthography or otherwise known as the

00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:56.560
standard lakota orthography

00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:58.800
another benefit of doing it in Emacs is

00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.640
that I now get

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:06.800
completion on lakota words so

00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:08.800
so I'm you know it's a second language

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:10.560
for me and as I'm trying to learn it

00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:11.440
it's actually

00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:13.760
quite useful to have company mode as a

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:15.599
bonus um

00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.680
for typing things

00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.239
I can show the other orthography so to

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:23.599
to get another one you do

00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:27.200
the universal input control u backslash

00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:30.560
and I can try the white hat orthography

00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:36.239
oh yeah lost

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:39.760
what's the command for that you are now

00:03:39.760 --> 00:03:41.440
unmuted

00:03:41.440 --> 00:03:44.720
yeah okay you are now muted

00:03:44.720 --> 00:03:48.000
thank you

00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:52.080
you are now unmuted you are now muted

00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.680
oops not quite as slick as that other

00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:58.879
demo we saw the other day

00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.799
okay so control u control backslash I

00:04:02.799 --> 00:04:04.239
can select a different

00:04:04.239 --> 00:04:07.200
input method um from the default so if I

00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:10.560
select white hat I can type

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:14.480
wash day like that

00:04:14.480 --> 00:04:18.000
so it's a different orthography here um

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.919
I won't go too deeply into that it's

00:04:19.919 --> 00:04:21.440
hard to think and talk and type all at

00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:23.120
the same time

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.320
um I hope that's good

00:04:26.320 --> 00:04:28.560
I'm happy to do more maybe I'll put up a

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.840
video of of demonstrating that sometimes

00:04:31.840 --> 00:04:36.479
why did I just go ahead

00:04:36.479 --> 00:04:39.520
um time about for like one more question

00:04:39.520 --> 00:04:42.880
okay on live yeah thank you

00:04:42.880 --> 00:04:45.280
um well real quick did I write the

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:46.240
company back end

00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:48.880
no that's just the automatic company

00:04:48.880 --> 00:04:50.639
completion based on other things I've

00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:51.280
typed

00:04:51.280 --> 00:04:55.440
why did I decide on the the input method

00:04:55.440 --> 00:04:58.080
that's a good question um I just did it

00:04:58.080 --> 00:04:58.880
based on

00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:03.120
my experience um in the x input mode you

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:04.000
type it first

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:06.160
and honestly I would love any input on

00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:07.120
what's more

00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.280
usual for these type of combining

00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:10.960
letters

00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:13.919
and really what I would like to do is

00:05:13.919 --> 00:05:15.360
kind of confer with other

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.600
people from the tribe and talk to elders

00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:19.440
and see

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:21.440
what feels right what what is the best

00:05:21.440 --> 00:05:23.600
way to go about this

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:24.800
I don't think that it should be an

00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:26.960
individual decision and in this case it

00:05:26.960 --> 00:05:27.919
is because

00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:30.880
I created it for myself but now that

00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:32.320
I've released it to the world I think

00:05:32.320 --> 00:05:34.639
there's more to think about

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:37.680
okay I guess I have to go now so we can

00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:38.800
get to the next talk

00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.320
thank you for listening okay

00:05:42.320 --> 00:05:44.320
thank you very much grant for your

00:05:44.320 --> 00:05:45.759
awesome talk and for

00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:50.720
the questions and answers
