Overview
allows you to convert transliterated Russian text from Latin into Cyrillic characters and vice versa.
In depth
Novyi Russkii is for users who want to occasionally type documents, e-mail messages, and newsgroup posts in Russian, but who want to be able to use their existing keyboard setup.
In order to use the program you have to familiarize yourself with the transliteration system, which is fortunately very intuitive.
The transliteration system used by Novyi Russkii is based on the one used by the Library of Congress (LC). To see how Novyi Russkii and LC transliteration systems match up, you can have a look at the transliteration table in the help file.
You simply open your favorite word processor, e-mail client, or similar application, type Russian in transliterated form, then copy, convert, and paste, and out comes Cyrillic text.
In addition, the program features a pop-up transliteration table, and can be activated with a hotkey.
The program runs as a convenient icon in the System Tray area of the Windows taskbar.
