GaGa Decoder

A Morse Code keyboard implementation, including text prompting, note viewing, and sound effects, please try~

The main function of this keyboard extension is for generating Morse Code.

Let me explain what does each button do:

1. the big 'a' and 'b' buttons. There are the two buttons represented 'dot' and 'dash
' in the morse code, which is equivalent to 'short' and 'long' in the morse code. Each alphabet letters('A'-'Z') and also the alpha number letters('0'-'9'), has an unique representation of dot and dash. For example: letter 'G' is represented by the dash, dash, dot. Therefore we can type in 'b', 'b', 'a'. then the letter G should be in the text prompt row on the top of the keyboard extension.

The reason I am using a, b is because this is an easy way to distinguish two keys and take a very little space.

2. there is a text prompt (row) area on the top of the keyboard extension, which is in a gray background. There are three paritions: the first is current input morse code, the second is the most matched Letter or Number, the third is the second most matched Letter or Number. Users can tap on one of these three partitions to input the text (just like the English Keyboard)

3. space and enter and delete buttons, these buttons can manipulate the text on the text prompt. Space can enter space or select an option from the text prompt area. Enter is also for selecting text. Delete is for deleting current morse code from test prompt area (if there are some), also deleting the text in the text input box.

4. the top right, 'note' button, when we long press it, the morse code dictionary will be shown, to help users to find the ingredient for the letter/number they would like to input.

5. the bottom left, 'music' button, when we long press it, we can switch the options: different sound effects, this is for making the keyboard more interesting. (To allow keyboard to play sound, ones need to allow open access of this keyboard in the keyboard setting).

Overall, this is an App for Morse code lover and beginner, helper buttons in this keyboard can help them learning: prompting, viewing note. The sound effects make typing interesting.
