# Live Transliterator
|
|
|
|
A lightweight web application that converts Latin-script input into Cyrillic (Russian or Ukrainian) or Esperanto characters in real time or on demand. Ideal for linguistic tools, learning aids, or any project requiring fast, accurate transliteration directly in the browser.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Real-time transliteration**: Automatically converts as you type when Live mode is enabled.
|
|
- **On-demand transliteration**: Select text and click a button to transliterate specific blocks.
|
|
- **Multiple schemes**: Supports Russian, Ukrainian, and Esperanto mapping.
|
|
- **Bash-style shortcuts**: Familiar `Ctrl+A`, `Ctrl+E`, `Ctrl+K`, and `Ctrl+U` editing commands.
|
|
- **Clipboard integration**: Automatically copies transliterated text to the clipboard after pauses.
|
|
- **Easy customization**: Pure HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript—zero dependencies.
|
