Note: This .DOC is in the KOI-8 format. In order to see the cyrillic text
you will need to first load a TSR which will translate the extended
ASCII codes into cyrillic letters.
Desc: This is the very first (as far as I know) CYRILLIC font for the HP48GX!
It can probably be used for a lot of things but I use it in conjunction
with StringWriter4.3.
Usage: Just download this object to your HP48 and store it in the global
variable name FONT. Then enter Stringwriter4.x and type away! You
probably won't always want to type in cyrillic while using Stringwriter
so just add a function to your CST menu called CyrlEdit or something
like that which you can use to edit text in cyrillic only. The program
should:
1. copy CYRILLIC.FNT to the variable FONT
2. load Stringwriter with the object on level 1 as the
object to be edited.
3. upon exit from Stringwriter, purge the FONT variable
Here's a sample { CyrlEdit <<CYRILLIC.FNT FONT STO Edit 'FONT' PURGE>> }
Keys: The keyboard is almost entirely phonetic, so it's easy to type. The
table below lists all the letters and the the HP48 keys to which they
are assigned. [LS] means LeftShift (purple) & [RS] means RightShift
(green). Obviously you must have the Alpha-lock on at all times.

Special thanks to the creators of StringWriter and FontWriter! I couldn't have
made the font without the one and would have nowhere to use it without the
other!
