Typing in Cyrillic Using a Roman-Script Keyboard

Cyrillic script is case sensitive. In so far as it's possible, I've mapped each Cyrillic character onto the Roman character that most resembles it phonetically. In some cases, a double-character coding is used, and in one case, I'm using a quadruple-character spelling. ('Shch' for Щ and 'shch' for щ)

Items for which no typing code has been made available are marked '---'. I don't anticipate there being a great need for these characters. If you disagree, however, and would like to see more characters made available in the Cyrillic Typewriter, please contact me via e-mail.
