It's possible to type N'Ko without installing any software. Using it is recommended if you want to type in N'Ko, but you cannot enable an N'Ko keyboard on the computer that you are using.

This virtual keyboard layout emulates the common N'Ko layout on PCs and in common mobile keyboard apps. If you are accustomed to typing it on such a layout and can type it quickly, you should probably use this one. There is also a transliteration layout, which is documented on the page Help:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector/Input methods/nqo-transliteration. Use any layout that is comfortable for you.

To make this layout work, follow these instructions:


 * 1) Click the search box at the top of the page.
 * 2) Click the little keyboard icon that appears near the search box.
 * 3) * If the little keyboard icon doesn't appear, do the following: Click the gear icon near the "Languages" list in the sidebar, click "Input", click "Enable input tools", and click "Apply settings".
 * 4) If "ߒߞߏ" appears at the top of the list, select "N'Ko standard QWERTY".
 * 5) If "ߒߞߏ" doesn't appear at the top of the list, do the following:
 * 6) Click "..." at the bottom of the list. A panel will appear.
 * 7) Find "ߒߞߏ" in the panel. Click it.
 * 8) Click the little keyboard icon again, and select "N'Ko standard QWERTY".

To disable this special keyboard and go back to type usually, click the little keyboard icon and then click "Use native keyboard", or press Ctrl-M. To re-enable the keyboard, press Ctrl-M, or repeat the steps above.

Note that this will only work if your operating system's keyboard layout is an English U.S. QWERTY layout.
