Otpad -- the miraculous freeware Cyrillic transliterator for Windows

[Benjamin Sher]

Dear friends:

I'm talking about Otpad, which I discovered from a list
member. You can download it from:

http://www.ingenit.com/otpad/

I took an MSWord Russian document in Times New Roman
(which is automatically (in MSWord 2000 and 2002) a
Unicode font, converted it to RTF, then selected it (Select
All), copied it (Edit, copy), then opened a blank page in
Otpad and pasted it in using the special Edit "paste
Unicode" command and bingo, the Russian text appears in
Cyrillic on the screen. I then selected it again (Edit, Select
All), and clicked on the toolbar Convert, To, Translit, and,
presto, the entire text is instantly converted to Roman
transliteration. Amazing!

Great for adding whole passages from Russian texts in
transliterated form in scholarly papers, in email, in anything.

Benjamin
