WinGreek Macros for Word® 97
By Matthew Robinson, Balliol College, Oxford, 25/09/97
New: the macros have been corrected, so that they now work with all WinGreek compatible fonts
Installation
See the file Word97GreekInstallation.doc for further details.
General description
These macros will insert and remove accents, breathings, and iota subscripts for the Greek font that comes in the WinGreek package, and for any Greek font with the same character mapping provided they are not encoded as a symbol font. Owing to a bug in Word 97, these macros will not work with fonts such as Greek Old Face – so if you wish to use that font then download a copy of Son of WinGreek. For the most part the macros do a similar job to Beta, but there are some important differences.
The disadvantages: You have to press two keys instead of one.
The macros only work in Word.
The advantages: Correcting mistakes is much easier.
Iota subscripts can now be inserted or removed like accents etc.
Capital letters can be given accents and breathings.
The macros work in a 32-bit environment (e.g. Windows 95).
How it works
Note: in the examples below, the keys assigned to the various accents etc. are the ones that come ‘ready-made’ with the macros—if you are using Word 7, you should be able to use them immediately. However, with some versions of Word 6, you will have to assign keys to the macros yourself: instructions are given in wordinst.doc. You can of course alter the default assignations if they are not to your liking.
Like Beta, you type the vowel and then press the accent/breathing:
e.g. type a then press (e.g.) ALT+/ (acute) to get £
or press (e.g.) ALT+< (rough breathing) to get ¡
or press both in any order to get ¤
Unlike Beta, accents will replace accents, breathings will replace breathings etc., so you do not have to delete the diacritic to replace it. Furthermore, since the keys toggle rather than just insert the diacritics, one can delete a breathing without first deleting the accent, and thus free oneself from the shackles of Beta’s ‘intelligent backspace’.
For example, if you have typed ¯ (alpha + rough breathing + acute accent + iota subscript) then any one of the diacritics can be changed without affecting the others:
pressing ALT+> (smooth breathing) will change rough to smooth: ¯ to °
pressing ALT+< (rough breathing) will delete the rough breathing: ¯ to ®
pressing ALT+\ (grave) will change acute to grave: ¯ to ²
pressing ALT+/ (acute) will delete the acute: ¯ to
pressing ALT+J (iota subscript) will delete the subscript: ¯ to ¤
If the above examples seem hard to follow, a few moments at play with the macros will make everything clear.
