And finally will have to write extension for MobileSubstrate and hook iOS keyboard functions and classes. http://iphonedevwiki.net/index.php/MobileSubstrate
It need a lot of time to do and need to learn a lot. Sorry, I can’t learn and can’t make keyboard for iOS 5.
Now, I am working on new DhammaStream that include download function and can work offline.
Thanks Thant Thet for trying iOS 5 keyboard. I hope, he can make for Zawgyi Keyboard also.
