Change log 2017-11-03:

• Added support for tengwar transcription. Supported modes are: adunaic, blackspeech, quenya, sindarin-beleriand, sindarin, telerin and westron. The westron mode is devised by Benjamin B, whereas the other modes should be according to Tolkien's specification. You trigger the transcriber by typing an at-sign (@) followed by the mode of choice, a pipe character and then the text you would like to transcribe. Finish with an at-character.

Examples:

@sindarin-beleriand|Mae govannen!@ → Mae govannen!
@blackspeech:Ash nazg durbatulûk@ → Ash nazg durbatulûk
@quenya:eleni sílar@ → eleni sílar
