WebSesh TinyMCE Plugin

WebSesh is a TinyMCE editor plugin to facilitate writing ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs in HTML.

WebSesh is intended to provide complete support for both “verbalist” writing using categorised signs, a full picklist in Manuel de Codage (MdC) style, and direct entry of Gardiner numbers. The project is currently a long way from having a complete feature set.

Please contribute! The project needs translators, software developers, Egyptologists, and technical writers.

The development server

By running the npm start command you start the development server and open a browser window with an instance of TinyMCE with your plugin added to it. This window will reload automatically whenever a change is detected in the index.html file in the static folder or in one of the JavaScript files in the src directory.

The production build

By running the npm run build command Webpack will create a dist directory with a child directory with the name of your plugin (websesh) containing three files:

  • plugin.js - the bundled plugin
  • plugin.min.js - the bundles, uglified and minified plugin
  • LICENSE - a file explaining the license of your plugin (copied over from src/LICENSE)
