Installing
##########

1. Open Plover
2. Navigate to the Plugin Manager tool
3. Select 'plover_fancytext' in the list
4. Click install
5. Restart Plover
6. If you just want the retro commands, you're done!

Extra steps for the extension plugin (which enables the
``{:fancytext_set:}`` commands):

1. In the Configure menu, navigate to the plugins section
2. Enable 'plover_fancytext' and apply

Usage
#####

You can either apply transformations with
``{:fancytext_retro::}``
which will replace ```` retroactively with fancy text. Example:
``{:fancytext_retro:2:bubble}`` to bubble-ize the last two words.

Or you can use ``{:fancytext_set:}`` to turn on
a mode until you turn it back off!

The format is ``{:fancytext_set:}`` to turn on the mode and simply ``{:fancytext_set:off}`` to turn off any mode.

Here's what I use (``23*9`` is more easily read as ``#TP*T``):
::

{
"23*9": "{:fancytext_set:off}",
"23*9/PW-UB": "{:fancytext_set:bubble}",
"23*9/KRAO-EU": "{:fancytext_set:crytyping}",
"23*9/SRA-EUP": "{:fancytext_set:fullwidth}",
"23*9/PH-ED": "{:fancytext_set:medieval}",
"23*9/SA-RBG": "{:fancytext_set:sarcasm}",
"23*9/-UP": "{:fancytext_set:upsidedown}",
"23*9/AO-U": "{:fancytext_set:uwu}",
"23*9/AO*U": "{:fancytext_set:UwU}",
"23*9/STKPWA-L": "{:fancytext_set:zalgo}"
}

Mode Notes
##########

It's worth noting that these modes will not always work with Plover's
orthography rules. Some modes will be more wrong than others

The zอ‰ฬถaฬ•lฬฌgฬ„อ™oฬ• mอฬŽoฬฌฬชdฬœeฬฬน can also take two arguments for the minimum and maximum number
of combining marks. Example ``{:fancytext_set:zalgo:10:15}`` for quite a lot of
zอ€ฬ•อ‘อฎฬ‡ฬ‰อฃอ™อ•ฬ„ฬนฬฉอ‹aฬออŽฬ‘ฬ˜อ…ฬฌฬตอ†อคอ™ฬ–ฬ•ฬผ lฬคอœฬŸฬฝฬฟอ‚ฬœอฌอŽออฉฬ ฬญฬตgฬ”ฬ•อฉฬฒออ€ฬงอฃอฌฬšอˆฬ‰ออจoฬ“อƒอฆอ„ฬ‚ฬ†อ›ฬขฬดอญอฃ. For reference the default is min=1, max=3

You may want the ใ€€๏ฝ†๏ฝ•๏ฝŒ๏ฝŒใ€€๏ฝ—๏ฝ‰๏ฝ„๏ฝ”๏ฝˆใ€€mode to use a full-width space. This can be done by
setting space in the same entry: ``{:fancytext_set:fullwidth}{MODE:SET_SPACE:ใ€€}``.
If you do this you'll probably also want to add ``{MODE:RESET}`` to your entry which turns
off the mode

This trick can also be applied to the upside down mode.
Include unicode 202e (right to left mark) as well as a space character for um, a
good time. You'll definitely want ``{MODE:RESET}`` on this one, and you might want
to add unicode 202d (left to right mark) to it as well. You don't want to use
these marks anywhere where text needs to be precisely correct, but should be
fine in many places. I've not included it as part of the mode because it is definitely an acquired
taste and can end up with you having text backwards after you turn the mode off

Figlet is only set up to work with ``fancytext_retro``. This is because the output is multi-line text
for individual words. It takes a ``font`` argument, you can use most `figlet fonts `_
