| Introduction |
 |
| Chinese
MLinput is a Java applet that allows
you to input Chinese characters and
do queries. However, it is not a Chinese
display -- you need to either download
Microsoft
Global IME or consult Read
Chinese in Net Applications in order
to display Chinese characters on your
system. Chinese MLinput features all
the 12 input methods available in CXTerm,
including 4Corner, ARRAY30, Boshiamy,
CangJie, English, ETZY, HSU, Punct,
PY, QJ, Simplex, and ZOZY. |

First
you choose the input method that you
are familiar with. Then you enter
the query and choose a search engine
to send the query to. The following
are some built-in functions:
- F1/Ctrl-Space
to toggle between Chinese/English
input
- F2/Shift-Space
to cycle through various input methods
- Shift-n
to select the Chinese characters
(can use n or spacebar
when appropriate)
- ESC clear
the key sequence
Note: Click on the current method
prompt to select more methods
Credits
Although I wrote this program from scratch,
it is not possible without other people's
efforts from the Internet.
- The input methods
were based on the CXTerm (Chinese X-Terminal) .tit in files compiled by various people
- The Chinese16
bitmap font from the IFCSS
- Similar Java Applet:
jInput (jInput's author couldn't release its source codes but helpfully
pointed me to CXTerm for more information,
thanks!).
