New feature for a quiet forum…

I just finished adding a feature to the message board, that is so coolly named, “The School Yard“.

The feature is that you can type in Tigrinya (Ge’ez letters) without the aid of a separate program. All you need is to download and install the proper font (“GF Zemen Unicode“) and remember the special table for the Latin-to-Ge’ez keystrokes.

I wanted to make the transliteration something unique to this website and easy to remember, so this is what I came up with. I hope you people like it.
