Extension summary

Typing Arabic Transliteration should be easy. With simple shortcuts (like Ctrl(Cmd)+Alt), you can type ā ī ū ḍ ḥ ṣ ṭ ẓ ʿ ﷻ ﷺ — and more. You can even type (ع) and (Rḍ). If you add Shift into the combo, you can write Ā Ī Ū Ḍ Ḥ Ṣ Ṭ Ẓ ʾ.

V 1.4 UPDATES: Google Inbox is now support (through the button). Icons in Inbox and GMail have been updated. [1/26/17]

V 1.3 UPDATES/FIXES: The user can automatically start typing with the special keys. Before, the user had to click, now, as long as the user has "focus" it will work.

New Features: Beta-Version of GMail integration. Clicking the new button in GMail should modify the last character typed.
