Lojban added to swipe-enabled "MultiLing O" Android app. Feedback needed.

The technology has been made available due to the frequency dictionary that i provided the author with (it's attached to this message, please study it).

It's obvious that the frequency dictionary needs further improvements.

Probably dots should be optionally removed from words that start from vowels. 

va'i such words should be duplicated pe'i.

There are still no fu'ivla, lujvo and cmavo clasters. We need them in order to make the application work proprely.

Technology similar to swipe (called Swype) is described here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swype

And here is the video.

Note that Multiling just uses a similar swipe technology, it's not Swype.

And I hope NOT replying to messages is not a new trend in this mailing list.

Does the IME have a user dictionary, allowing on to add words at first entry?

Because if so, then the list doesn't need any more work.

Hey, that's really not bad!

Here's some details for people for using this:

Install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kl.ime.oh

Instal https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=klye.plugin.lj
as gleki said.

Do the usual keyboard setup dance.

Slide off the space bar, find "languages" in the upper left, go into
"abc" (by which he apparently means "latin alphabet languages"),
find Lojban.

After that, a slide from space to the right will switch languages.

I also reccomend sliding from the gear icon to "auto" and adding
auto space.

Go you!

This keyboard does not work with swipes starting from ".", but it
does understand that words start with it, so yeah, both is probably
good.

Yes, you can add new words but preinstalled full dictionary with most frequent cmavo clusters like {lonu} instead of {lo nu} is a must.

Why do people even use clusters? Is it just to make the strings shorter?

laziness+ the fact that lojban allows to do that.

The same reason for dropping dots. it leads to no ambiguity.

Hey, peeps. mi'o need feedback. Here is the apk file attached to this message.

Allow your Android device to install apps not only from Android market and then install this apk file.

Then test O Keyboard with lojban enabled as usual.

Waiting for your responses.

Notice that in Multiling O Keyboard (new beta) Lojban qwerty keyboard allows adding stress to vowels. Just enter a vowel and then long-press the "S" button.

This gives the opportunity to enter texts in la selpa'i style (but on the other hand disallows to use the dictionary although this can be changed by improving the dictionary in Plugin.Lojban for MultiLing).

I just obtained a Nexus 7 and will be installing this app soon to try it out.

Once I've played with it for a couple days/a week I'll let you know if I feel something is lacking in the dictionary.
