Functions


WTTClass TACchtype (thchar_t c)
WTT character class. WTTOp TACio_op (thchar_t c1, thchar_t c2)
WTT I/O operation.

Detailed Description

WTT I/O implementation.

WTT stands for Wing Tuk Tee (in Thai, Runs everywhere). It was defined by TACTIS (Thai API Consortium/Thai Industrial Standard) in the NECTEC Thai Software Standard Project (1989-1991), and later endorsed by Thai Industrial Standard Institute (TISI) as TIS 1566-2541 in 1998.

WTT classifies Thai chracter(TIS-620) into 17 types below.


ITYPE VALUE SHORT_DESCRIPTION
CTRL 0 control characters
NON 1 non composible characters
CONS 2 consonants
LV 3 leading vowels
FV1 4 following vowels 1
FV2 5 following vowels 2
FV3 6 following vowels 3
BV1 7 below vowels 1
BV2 8 below vowels 2
BD 9 below diacritics
TONE 10 tonemarks
AD1 11 above diacritics 1
AD2 12 above diacritics 2
AD3 13 above diacritics 3
AV1 14 above vowels 1
AV2 15 above vowels 2
AV3 16 above vowels 3

Functions in thctype.h do basic character classifications while wtt.h classifies a chracter in detail. Please refer to the reference.

TACio_op() checks how to compose two given chracters. The possiblities are Composible (CP), Non-display (XC), Accept (AC), Reject (RJ) and Strict Reject (SR). The values of CP, XC, AC, RJ and SR are difined in wtt.h. And their meanings are:

  • CP : second character is displayed in the same cell as the first, also implies an acceptance.
  • XC : Do nothing.
  • AC : Display second character in the next cell.
  • RJ : Discard second character.
  • SR : Reject second character only in strict mode.
