# OopsWrongLang

A simple utility to fix text that you accidentally typed in the wrong keyboard layout (English to Persian and vice-versa).

## Features

- Converts selected text between English and Persian keyboard layouts.
- Runs in the background with a system tray icon.
- Easy to use with a simple keyboard shortcut.

## How it Works

The application runs in the background and monitors for a specific keyboard shortcut. When you press the shortcut, it does the following:

1.  Copies the currently selected text to the clipboard.
2.  Converts the text to the other keyboard layout (e.g., English to Persian).
3.  Pastes the converted text, replacing your selection.

## Prerequisites

-only tested on Windows.
- You must have Python installed on your system. You can download it from [python.org](https://www.python.org/).

2.  **For Windows users:**
    Run the `install.bat` script to create a virtual environment and install the required dependencies.
