Hi Yuri,
Thanks your response, I try to be more precise. Yes, IPA transscript would be a help, but I currently am talking about arabic written text that need to be converted into latin letters. I have the table with the correct latin phonetic pairs, and I would like to reach that when I feed in the arabic text some program does the conversion for me. The main issue here is that I need to make/edit a sort of 3 column dictionary and I would like to spare some extra phonetic typing.... Libreoffice seems to be unusable for this, but sort of ibus typing booster support would be great. Yet sadly, there is seems to be that no support for any kind of arabic text, so converting - making a phonetic transscript based on predefined letter pairs seems to me impossible. But, maybe I can define m17n module somehow, so when I enter the word it makes for me that transscript in other column ???? I wish, but no idea that is possible or not.
