Supported Commands

=retro_transform:<n>:<format>

Transforms the prior n translations using format.

Format has the following special keys:

• %s or %o: Stroke list
• %l or %d: Lookup results
• %t: Text results

Example usage: With SPHRA*EUPB defined as:

  =retro_transform:2:%s: "%l" -> "%t"

Assuming default main.json, then:

T/T/T/T/SPHRA*EUPB: it it `T/T`: "it it" -> "it it"
T/PHRAOES/-S/SPHRA*EUPB: `T/PHRAOES/-S`: "it please {^s}" -> "it pleases"

=transform:<format>

Transforms the string, substituting template values in format

• %0 - %63: Template value
• %%: '%' character

Example usage:

  =transform:Hello %0

Modifiers supported:

• %u: Upper case
• %l: Lower case
• %t: Title case
• %c: Capitalize

Example usage:

  =transform:Hello %u0

=set_value:<template value>:<n>

Sets template value to the last n lookup translations. The value adopted is removed from input to indicate what was set.

Example usage:

  =set_value:0:2

This sets template value 0 to the last 2 lookups.

Suggested bindings:

  "SR*FR": "=set_value:0:1",
  "SR*FR/SR*FR": "=set_value:0:2",
  "SR*FR/SR*FR/SR*FR": "=set_value:0:3",

  "SR*PB": "=set_value:1:1",
  "SR*PB/SR*PB": "=set_value:1:2",
  "SR*PB/SR*PB/SR*PB": "=set_value:1:3",
  "SR*PB/SR*PB/SR*PB/SR*PB": "=set_value:1:4",
  "SR*LG": "=set_value:2:1",
  "SR*LG/SR*LG": "=set_value:2:2",
  "SR*LG/SR*LG/SR*LG": "=set_value:2:3",
  "SR*LG/SR*LG/SR*LG/SR*LG": "=set_value:2:4",
  "SR*TS": "=set_value:3:1",
  "SR*TS/SR*TS": "=set_value:3:2",
  "SR*TS/SR*TS/SR*TS": "=set_value:3:3",
  "SR*TS/SR*TS/SR*TS/SR*TS": "=set_value:3:4",
  "SR*DZ": "=set_value:4:1",
  "SR*DZ/SR*DZ": "=set_value:4:2",
  "SR*DZ/SR*DZ/SR*DZ": "=set_value:4:3",
  "SR*DZ/SR*DZ/SR*DZ/SR*DZ": "=set_value:4:4",

{:add_translation}

Interactive prompt to add translation.

Example usage:

  {:add_translation}

Providing a parameter will cause only the strokes to be prompted. This can be useful in combination with =transform and template values.

  =transform:{:add_translation:\n\nHello %0}

{:console:}

Starts interactive console mode.

Example usage:

  Console>{^ ^}{:console}

{:console:<cmd>}

Runs a console command. The list of commands can be found using help in the console tool

Example usage:

  {:console:set_space_position after}

{:disable_dictionary:<dictionary_name>}

Disables a dictionary.

Example usage:

  {:disable_dictionary:main.json}

{:enable_dictionary:<dictionary_name>}

Enables a dictionary.

Example usage:

  {:enable_dictionary:main.json}

{:host_layout:<layout_name>}

Sets the layout of the host computer.

Supported values are determined at firmware build time.

  {:host_layout:us_windows_alt}

{:reset_state}

Resets the state of the steno engine.

This removes all stroke history, and sets the next stroke to output without a leading space, and in default (lower) case.

Example usage:

  {:reset_state}

{:retro_capitalise:<nth_word>}

Converts the prior nth_word word to capital.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_capitalise:3}

Output: This Is a test

{:retro_double_quotes:<n_words>}

Surrounds the prior n_words with double quotes.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_double_quotes:2}

Output: This is "a test"

{:retro_lower:<n_words>}

Lower cases the prior n_words.

Example usage: Text: THIS IS A TEST

  {:retro_lower:2}

Output: THIS IS a test

{:retro_replace_space:<n>:<replacement>}

Replaces the prior n spaces with <replacement>.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_replace_space:2:_}

Output: This is_a_test

{:retro_single_quotes:<n_words>}

Surrounds the prior n_words with single quotes.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_single_quotes:2}

Output: This is 'a test'

{:retro_surround:<n_words>:<prefix>:<suffix>}

Surrounds the prior n_words with prefix and suffix.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_surround:2:[:]}

Output: This is [a test]

{:retro_title:<n_words>}

Converts the prior n_words to title case.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_title:3}

Output: This Is A Test

{:retro_upper:<n_words>}

Converts the prior n_words to upper case.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:retro_upper:3}

Output: This IS A TEST

{:set_case:<case>}

Sets the case for output.

Supported values:

• normal
• lower
• upper
• title

Example usage:

  {:set_case:title}

{:set_space:<separator>}

Use separator between words.

Example usage:

The following will give "snake case" words:

  {:set_space:_}

{:stitch:<text>:<delimiter?>}

Use delimiter between text, if the previous text was also a stitch.

Example usage:

• Stitched capital letter alphabet:

  {:stitch:A}{:stitch:B} → A-B

• Joining repeated words

  {:stitch:ha:} → ha

  {:stitch:ha:}{:stitch:ha:}{:stitch:ha:} → hahaha

• Custom delimiter

  {:stitch:lol:o} → lol

  {:stitch:lol:o}{:stitch:lol:o}{:stitch:lol:o} → lololololol

{:stitch_last_word:<n>:<delimiter>}

Use delimiter between the last n words.

Example usage: Text: This is a test

  {:stitch:3:-}

Output: This i-s a t-e-s-t

{:toggle_dictionary:<dictionary_name>}

Toggles a dictionary between enabled and disabled.

Example usage:

  {:toggle_dictionary:main.json}
