Hey everybody, sorry to kind of double post. I was looking for a way when doing a Greek Ligature list, to possibly get with someone that can create a software, or knows how to code; so that there would be a way to simply view the Ligatures, select it, and the proper conversion would be copied to the clip-board to enter in your text. I think I found a software that could do it, and it is open source, and I think it is written in C++, and I also think there is a Portable version? When opening up the Symbol HTML, it seems the code to display the Symbol and Description is pretty simple. I dont know much about coding, but it looks like it would be easy to configure, for someone with coding knowledge, to switch it around where the person can click the symbol, but the description will be copied to the clip-board instead of the Symbol. Also, it will be tedious work, but I think there is a way to make every cell in Excel, its own photo, and these could be the photo's, to display as the Symbols in the Software. Kind of just throwing the idea around. I am not beyond paying, dont know how much work is involved? Any help would be appreciated. Also I will do the work of matching up the Ligatures with their Conversions in Excel. Its just getting them into the Software form I have no clue about.
