Sublime-BetaCode

This repository is archived because I don’t use Sublime Text anymore.

A plugin that allows typing polytonic Greek into Sublime Text.

Its syntax is based on Beta Code, but it differs from it in that:

Asterisk prefix is not needed for capitals, i.e. ‘d’ → ‘δ’, ‘D’ → ‘Δ’. (But the asterisk syntax still works.)
Lunate sigma is not supported, and final sigmas are used automatically when fit, though ‘j’ is also mapped to final sigma.
Macron is ‘_’, breve is ‘^’ and diæresis is ‘+’.
‘:’ becomes ‘·’.

The full mapping can be clearly seen from the code:

latin = u'ABGDEVZHQIKLMNCOPRSJTUFXYW:abgdevzhqiklmncoprsjtufxyw'
greek = u'ΑΒΓΔΕϜΖΗΘΙΚΛΜΝΞΟΠΡΣΣΤΥΦΧΨΩ·αβγδεϝζηθικλμνξοπρσςτυφχψω'
accents = [
  ('(' , u'\u0314'), # Spiritus lenis
  (')' , u'\u0313'), # Spiritus asper
  ('\\', u'\u0300'), # Grave accent
  ('/' , u'\u0301'), # Acute accent
  ('=' , u'\u0342'), # Circumflex accent
  ('|' , u'\u0345'), # Iota subscript
  ('+' , u'\u0308'), # Diæresis
  ('_' , u'\u0304'), # Macron
  ('^' , u'\u0306')  # Breve
]

How to use

To use it add the following lines (or similar) to your Keybindings — User file:

{"keys": ["ctrl+b"], "command": "beta_code"}

After that, select the desired region and click Ctrl+B (or the key sequence you used) and voilà.

Example usage

Usage example taken from Plato, Rep. 6.508d:

Becomes:

Οὕτω τοίνυν καὶ τὸ τῆς ψυχῆς ὧδε νόει· ὅταν μὲν οὗ καταλάμπει
ἀλήθειά τε καὶ τὸ ὄν, εἰς τοῦτο ἀπερείσηται, ἐνόησέν τε καὶ
ἔγνω αὐτὸ καὶ νοῦν ἔχειν φαίνεται· ὅταν δὲ εἰς τὸ τῷ σκότῳ
κεκραμένον, τὸ γιγνόμενόν τε καὶ ἀπολλύμενον, δοξάζει τε καὶ
ἀμβλυώττει ἄνω καὶ κάτω τὰς δόξας μεταβάλλον, καὶ ἔοικεν αὖ
νοῦν οὐκ ἔχοντι.
