Aksun

Sundanese script converter and translation [WIP]

Introduction

Aksun or Aksara Sunda (or Sundanese script) is a program for converting Latin script to Sundanese script easily. Also useful for translating from or to Sundanese language with or without Sundanese script.

Usage

const { converter } = require("aksun");

let result = converter("Kumaha Damang");
console.log(result);

Output: ᮊᮥᮙᮠ ᮓᮙᮀ

CLI

aksun [options] <input>

Example

aksun Sampurasun

Output: ᮞᮙ᮪ᮕᮥᮛᮞᮥᮔ᮪

aksun "Wilujeung Sumping"

Output: ᮝᮤᮜᮥᮏᮩᮀ ᮞᮥᮙ᮪ᮕᮤᮀ

Copy output to clipboard

Linux with xclip

aksun "Nami abdi Rizki, anjeun tiasa nyauran kuring Iki" | xclip -selection c

Mac with pbcopy

aksun "Aing maung" | pbcopy

Windows with clip

Available Options

-v, --version           print aksun version
-h, --help              print help to console

TODO

• CommandLine Interface (node.js)
• Shell script version (for easy integration with other scripts)
• C version (for multi-platform)

Troubleshoot

If you see square instead of glyps, make sure you install noto fonts, or download sundanese font from Kairaga.com

If you are in the terminal, make sure your terminal support rendering the fonts. I use st with JetBrainsMono Nerd Font and that's works great (although not perfect)
