[thai_kedmanee_mattix] Migrate keyboard from legacy/thai-uni by Meng-Heng · Pull Request #3926 · keymanapp/keyboards

Meng-Heng · 2026-03-19T05:17:16Z

I noticed a broken link from the help:

This keyboard has also been optimised to take advantage of context-sensitive multiple keyboard switching capabilities in Toolbox (a flat database program) available from SIL.

Is this https://sildb.com/ a suitable replacement?
I can't proof if the statement above is true or not, should we keep it and change only the link, or should we remove it?

Note to self:

* Move versions 1.1 - 1.2 to history.md
* Remove version history from welcome.htm and help.php
* Add deprecated pages

+    <h3>Basic Function</h3>
+    <p>
+        This keyboard follows the standard Thai Kedmanee layout. It also allows efficient input of uncommon Thai symbols. Characters are reordered while you type to ensure a consistent underlying sequence of diacritic vowels and tones, making tasks like search and replace much easier. Additional rules prevent you from typing many illegal vowel and tone sequences. This keyboard has also been optimised to take advantage of context-sensitive multiple keyboard switching capabilities in Toolbox (a flat database program) available from SIL.


I noticed a broken link from the help

The Toolbox download would be https://software.sil.org/toolbox/download/

But it's probably more appropriate to replace with FieldWorks
https://software.sil.org/fieldworks/download/

I only skimmed a few of the files so far. A couple questions...

+* Moved from legacy to release by [Meng-Heng](https://github.com/Meng-Heng)

+1.3 (2023-08-11)


This section was originally the legacy thai-uni keyboard, right?

Do you know what changed in version 1.3?

https://keyman.com/keyboards/thai-uni currently lists Keyboard Version 1.2

It might've come from when I used kmc copy. It noted the 1.3 version with the Last Updated:

1.0 (2023-08-11) ---------------- * Created by Lao & Thai Language Services`

I can't find what was updated.

2.0 (2026-03-13) ---------------- * Moved from freeware license to MIT license by permission of the author Samuel A. Mattix. * Moved from legacy to release by [Meng-Heng](https://github.com/Meng-Heng) 1.2 (2012-05-24) ---------------- * Released for Keyman Desktop 8.0: * Minor Revisions to On Screen Keyboard * Revised help. 1.1 (2008-01-30) ---------------- * Released for Keyman Desktop 7.0: Public Domain. * Created by Lao & Thai Language Services

Would you like me to change to this?

Maybe something like:

2.0 (2026-03-13) ------------------ * Created by importing legacy thai-uni keyboard by permission of the author Samuel A. Mattix. * Moved from legacy to release by [Meng-Heng](https://github.com/Meng-Heng)

and then the 1.2 and before.

@LornaSIL has done these before.

I finished editing. This is now ready for reviews.

@Meng-Heng I'm sorry I didn't catch this sooner, but we have a bit of a problem with the name. We already have a thai_kedmanee keyboard in legacy (it was a mobile keyboard only that is deprecated) and we can't use the same filename.

I think you can keep the keyboard name, but change the folder and filenames to something like thai (which is available) or thai_kedmanee_mattix. @darcywong00 or @mcdurdin do you have a preference for the foldername?

…thai_kedmanee

Meng-Heng · 2026-03-23T03:52:01Z

I read through this Wiki to understand more about keyboard. How do we think about naming a keyboard with traditional, as in Thai Traditional or Khmer Traditional?

mcdurdin · 2026-03-23T06:22:25Z

thai_kedmanee_mattix

I think this is a good name

Changing from Thai Kedmanee to Thai Kedmanee (Mattix) in other files to keep the naming consistent. @darcywong00, is this okay?
