MdC to unicode converter

MdC 2 Unicode is a free online tool developed for the STaTbS21D Project. It is specifically designed for the bulk conversion of the project sources in JSesh .gly files to GitHub .md files with Egyptian hieroglyphs in Unicode characters, following both STaTbS21D standards and ORAEC recommendations alternatively.

The project’s recommended format for JSesh files is the following:

  1. Name of the source in Latin bold (e.g.: +bPapyrus Leiden T 3 (AMS 40). Book of the Dead spell 194.+s-!).
  2. Author of the transcription in Latin italics (e.g.: +iTyped by Ivan Rodríguez López+s-!).
  3. Hieroglyphic transcription of the source in MdC.
  4. Optional notes in Latin normal (e.g.: +lNote 1: First block of text ...+s-!. If more than one note, provide consecutive numbers after the heading).

All the files generated include the mark Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
