Issue with Transliterating Cyrillic Characters Topic is solved

[Loop]

Hey,

Unfortunately, the MsgBox window displays nothing.
Could someone please take a look and let me know what I might be doing wrong?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Code: Select all

transliteration := {"а": "a", "б": "b", "в": "v", "г": "g", "д": "d", "е": "e", "ё": "yo", "ж": "zh", "з": "z", "и": "i", "й": "y", "к": "k", "л": "l", "м": "m", "н": "n", "о": "o", "п": "p", "р": "r", "с": "s", "т": "t", "у": "u", "ф": "f", "х": "kh", "ц": "ts", "ч": "ch", "ш": "sh", "щ": "sch", "ъ": """", "ы": "y", "ь": """", "э": "e", "ю": "yu", "я": "ya"}


cyrillic_char := "Ю"
latin_char := transliteration[cyrillic_char] ? transliteration[cyrillic_char] : cyrillic_char
MsgBox % latin_char

Edit: The file is saved in UTF-8 with BOM, some characters work, but not all

It works only if it's in your array.

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v1.1.33
transliteration := {"ю": "yu"}
cyrillic_char1  := "Ю"
cyrillic_char2  := "ю"
MsgBox % "1       = " transliteration[cyrillic_char1]   "`n"
       . "2       = " transliteration[cyrillic_char2]   "`n"
       . "Same = "    (cyrillic_char1 = cyrillic_char2)

[Loop]

Thank you @mikeyww
Honestly, I don't understand it.
"Ю" is contained in my array.
I don't understand the difference between cyrillic_char1 and cyrillic_char2, they are the same thing, aren't they?

If you believe that your character is saved in your array, then do a "Find" in your text editor and see if the character is found. I think that the two characters differ. AHK indicates that the two characters differ. So that is two votes so far. You can cast your vote, but AHK still wins the election!

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v1.1.33
transliteration := {"ю": "yu"}
cyrillic_char1  := "Ю"
cyrillic_char2  := "ю"
MsgBox % Asc(cyrillic_char1) "`n"
       . Asc(cyrillic_char2)

[Loop]

both my browser (Firefox) and my editor (Notepad) tell me that it is the same character.
This means that the search finds all character
But, I believe AHK when it says that there are different characters.

OK. I do not know why the programs handle them differently, but at least you have a solution now.

They are visibly different characters in Scite as well.

Code: Select all

msgbox % ("Ю" = "ю")

It seems like Notepad might treat these as variants or cases of the same letter, but AHK does not. Perhaps that is how AHK works with this language or various languages.
