I wonder if there's a Unix script for such a conversion...

I mean, the one that reads the standard input and puts results in standard output. Of couse, I can make one from the JavaScript on the page given by Dana, but Rhino is simply too slow... I haven't tried V8 yet, though, maybe it can help. I would prefer a ready-made solution, though.

This way, it will be possible to call the script from vim, for instance.

Try this one: http://aveneca.com/xipa.html

so can I)))

Awesome! I can write IPA!

So that everyone will be able to use normal transcriptions:
