| Feb 18, 2020 at 21:23 | comment | added | WGroleau | Fixes the missing glyphs problem? What did you do differently? Or, actually, maybe that would fit the Ukulele forum better than here. | |
| Feb 18, 2020 at 21:18 | comment | added | Tom Gewecke | @WGroleau I put a new copy at the link which hopefully fixes that problem | |

| Feb 17, 2020 at 22:44 | comment | added | WGroleau | Odd that this method has removed a few possible outputs from the original Unicode He Input. That's off-topic for Apple.SE, so → groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ukelele-users/aUWW_QFLA6s | |
| Feb 16, 2020 at 6:12 | comment | added | WGroleau | Well, it seems what I should do is figure out all the changes I want to make, and try to do them in one session. I do not have to reboot or even log out to see the results of any change. so I can change and revert (if necessary) in a single session. | |
| Feb 16, 2020 at 2:44 | comment | added | WGroleau | I do have a pre-SIP iMac. Catalina allows you to mount its read-only volume on another as read-write? I’ll have to do some study on that. I’m good at NFS, but that was decades ago. SMB, I’ve done, but not often. | |
| Feb 16, 2020 at 2:25 | comment | added | Tom Gewecke | @WGroleau I edit these things in place from another macos installed on a separate volume. Still 2 reboots, but no need to play with sip or read/write. Easier? | |
| Feb 15, 2020 at 23:48 | comment | added | WGroleau | For what it's worth: Tom's method does add the pop-ups to Unicode Text Input, and I can edit the .plist(s) defining the pop-up. Unfortunately, they MUST be edited in place with SIP disabled and the .plist directory mounted writable. That means two reboots for every edit (and two more if a mistake was made). Irritating. | |

Added link to "step two" of the desired goal.

| Feb 12, 2020 at 19:02 | comment | added | WGroleau | If anyone else is interested, the Ukelele manual has an appendix with links to a lot of related stuff. Valuable for this question is belkadan.com/blog/2012/04/Keyboard-Adventures | |
| Feb 12, 2020 at 18:01 | comment | added | WGroleau | Taking this as the answer, though I intend to finish reading the manual and trying to do it myself. | |

| Feb 12, 2020 at 17:52 | comment | added | WGroleau | I see that page fourteen in the manual has “support for press-and-hold” which wasn’t mentioned in the tutorial. | |
| Feb 12, 2020 at 17:40 | comment | added | Tom Gewecke | I don't know what you mean by merging. It has feature to duplicate existing keyboards. The popup menu contained inside the pressandhold.app can apparently be accessed by using the bundle format and giving the keyboard an appropriate language parameter. Ukelele manual section 5.6 | |
| Feb 12, 2020 at 17:18 | comment | added | WGroleau | That sounds like the direction I was fiddling with. Ukelele has a merging feature? I’m still reading the very large manual … | |
