Package Exports

multranslate
multranslate/multranslate-custom-cursor.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (multranslate) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

💡 Text buffer

The Blessed library is deprecated (no longer supported) and has a number of technical limitations, such as cursor navigation in a text input field. For this reason, a mechanism for managing input text via text buffer has been implemented, which allows using a custom cursor for navigation using keyboard arrows and automatic scrolling for swiping.

If you plan to use this library for similar tasks where text input is required, then add class TextBuffer and control of keypress shortcuts to your code via inputBox.on().

⌨ Hotkeys

Enter - is used each time to translate the text simultaneously with moving to a new line.
Shift+<⬆/⬇> - simultaneous scrolling of all output panels.
Ctrl+<Q/W/E/R> - copying translation results from output forms to the clipboard (for each translator, the key combination is indicated in brackets), and the selected form will change its color to green.
Ctrl+V - paste text from the clipboard (defined at the code level).
Ctrl+C - clear the text input field.
Ctrl+<⬆/⬇> - scrolling the text input panel without navigation.
Ctrl+<⬅/➡> - quick cursor navigation through phrases.
Ctrl+DEL - delete the phrase before the cursor.
Ctrl+<A/D> - move the cursor to the beginning or end of text input.
Escape - exit the program.
