When your source is an handwritten version of a text, like in the Urkunden, beware of one point: unless a sign is very particular, an egyptologist will usually draw his glyphs in the easiest way. The problem you have when you want to be very accurate is that you will find many cases of variants which have no encoding anyway, and you take the chances to mislead your readers by giving a false impression of accuracy. As a rule, if you are a beginner in Egyptian, I'd advise you to encode the “standard” sign, as it will force you to read the text, not to copy signs.

If you wonder whether it's a free play to add diversity to the text, then you may take the time to encode the variants. If you intend the text to be for grammatical study, it's not very relevant. For instance, in the Kanaïs texts by Sethi the Ist, the first person pronoun uses many variants of A40 ( ). Now, when you have a sign, should you look for the most precise variant for it, or use a somehow standardised one? To answer this, you should wonder if this variant is relevant, in the text, and in the use you intend to make of it. If the text is ultimately a hieratic text, you are already creating something completely different anyway. The first point is that you can be sure that your Manuel de Codage text can't be a facsimile, so, one way or another, it will betray the original. You must decide how faithfull to the original you must be, and it's not a simple question. Typically, you have a source, which might be a) a printed source, with typeset hieroglyphs, b) a photograph or an acurate facsimile of the original text, or c) handwritten hieroglyph from an egyptological publication (for instance, the Urkunden). CB I), I have found and fixed a few typos.Before describing the manuel de codage itself, I'd like to make a point or two about how one should encode a hieroglyphic text. As always, information about a few signs has been added/updated.fixes to the group editor : rotation and scaling were very difficult to use.new files, when saved, will be correctly understood as ending with a '.gly' suffix.The allows to search for a number of alternative glyphs (here either r or rw). Their number can be limited with 'max skip length' (here, 3). The '*' represents a number of arbitrary glyphs. Will look for sequences of signs which start with i-A2, contain either r or rw, and end with A1.

It's probably more straightforward, and way faster. I have replaced it with a possibility to limit the length of the text skipped by '*'. Useful when the search included a '*' character. In JSesh 7.4.2, you had an option to limit the length of the matched text. moved to Java9, as Java8 support is going away.at least, 'enclosure' signs are drawn correctly.support for the new U+A7BD support of yod (see the page on transliteration).export in Unicode format of the hieroglyphic text (when possible).a system to add new line numbers efficiently.the search system has been improved, and is much faster now.JSesh 7.5.5 contains a number of improved features : (If you have problems installing it, please refer to this post). I have uploaded a Youtube video about it.
