Suggestion - ELOT 743

[aapostolou]

Hello everyone,

I want to suggest a new function based on the Greek Standard, ELOT 743 which is recognised by the EU.

Current Function

var greeklish = greekUtils.toGreeklish('Εύηχο: αυτό που ακούγεται ωραία.');
console.log(greeklish); //Euhxo: auto pou akougetai wraia.

Suggested Function (to Add)

var greeklish = greekUtils.toGreeklishELOT743('Εύηχο: αυτό που ακούγεται ωραία.');
console.log(greeklish); // Evicho: afto pou akougetai oraia.

Goverment App for Translation

Standard Documentation (in greek)

---

If i understand correctly, the mapping is working based on find/replace objects.
We also need to sanitize the string which is already a function.

I will do my best to provide a greek-to-greeklish-elot743-map.js.

Regards,
Alex
