User:Mqrius

I'm an aspiring Steno writer. While waiting for my Sidewinder to come in, I'm practicing with 2 keyboards at the same time, one for my left hand, one for my right, both of which *don't* have NKRO.

I'll put stuff here that I want to write down, and occasionally link to.

Woot! I finally got my Sidewinder! http://i.imgur.com/y1pJeuR.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ruKDfKE.jpg

Putting dictionary edits in your own dictionary

• Create a new file filename.json
• Edit the file, add the following without quotes: "{}"
• In Plover, click configure, Dictionary, Add Dictionary, browse to filename.json, Open
• Make sure your added dictionary is at the bottom (Hit the arrow buttons)
• Click Save (Do this now! If you add translations before doing this, stuff gets messed up, and the translations don't end up in the new dictionary)
• Now you can go back and add translations.

Getting StenoTray to work

On Windows 7:

• Download StenoTray from https://github.com/brentn/StenoTray, extract the zip file.
• Make a file stenotray.cfg in your plover config dir: c:\Users\[User]\AppData\Local\plover\plover\
• Add in the line without quotes: "PLOVER_CONFIG = c:\Users\Marius\AppData\Local\plover\plover\plover.cfg"
• Doublecheck that logging is turned on and that your plover.cfg has a log file entry.
• Run StenoTray.jar by doubleclicking
• If you get the error "Could not find the main class: StenoTray. Program will exit", then you probably don't have the current folder in your java path. You can instead run the file by making a shortcut or bat file that runs it like this without quotes: "java -Djava.ext.dirs=. -Djava.library.path=. StenoTray"

Note that StenoTray doesn't output anything before you have 3 characters when fingerspelling, although it may give an output based on strokes.
