Windows Üzerinde Plover Kurulumu

Plover kurulabilir ya da taşınabilir bir ZIP olarak doğrudan çalıştırılabilir. Eğer Plover'ı bir USB bellek üzerinden çalıştırıyorsanız ya da ana makinenin yetkileri kısıtlanmışsa, taşınabilir ZIP'i kullanmak daha avantajlı olabilir. Fakat başka tüm kullanım amaçları için, kurulum yöntemi önerilir.

Windows kurulum sihirbazını indirin

Kurulum sihirbazını çalıştırın ve ekrandaki talimatları takip edin. Windows Defender SmartScreen'i baypas etmek için uygulamaya yetki atamanız gerekebilir.

Windows taşınabilir ZIP'i indirin

Tüm arşivi Plover'ı çalıştırmak için kullanmak istediğiniz klasöre doğru çıkarın.

Other “keyboard helper”-type applications (e.g. Karabiner Elements and text expanders) may interfere with Plover.

If you had previously uninstalled Plover or upgraded your system

Repeat step 5, and remove Plover from the list. Do not just uncheck Plover; you will have to explicitly remove Plover by using the - button. Once Plover has been removed, re-add Plover.app by repeating step 6.

Install Plover on Linux

Plover is provided as an AppImage. This is the only officially supported method to using Plover on Linux.

Plover is not officially supported on systems running Wayland at this moment. Many distros use Wayland by default and you will need to switch to X11 in order to use Plover. Follow a tutorial like this one to determine if you’re running Wayland and how to switch.

Download the Plover AppImage here

To use it:

Download it
Make it executable
Launch it like a standard executable

Allow Access to Serial Ports

All hobbyist steno keyboards use serial protocols to communicate with Plover. Users by default do not have privileges to use these protocols. You will have to add your user to a group in order to obtain those privileges.

To find the name of the relevant group, plug in your steno keyboard and open a terminal to run the following command:

stat -c "%G" /dev/ttyACM*

You should see dialout or uucp depending on your distro. If the above command results in a “file not found” error, try replacing ACM with USB and verify that your keyboard is connected with a working cable.

Once you know the correct group, add your user to it by running the following command:

sudo usermod -aG <group> $USER

Replace <group> with the output of the previous command.

Once you have added yourself to the right group, restart your computer.

Error relating to xcb

You may run into the following error when trying to run Plover:

Could not load the Qt platform plugin “xcb” in “” even though it was found. This application failed to start because noQt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Ensure that the following packages are installed:

libxcb
xcb-util
qt5-qtstyleplugins
libxcb-cursor0

Note that the names of these packages may differ depending on the distro you are using. If the error still persists, run the following:

./plover-4.0.0rc2-x86_64.AppImage -s plover_plugins install -v 'PyQt5==5.14.2' 'PyQt5-sip==12.7.2'

Setting up my machine

Initially, Plover is set up to use your computer keyboard as a steno machine. If you have a steno machine, you’ll need to configure Plover to look for your machine. Please check the Supported Hardware page to find instructions specific to your machine.
