The data ;; is derived from a dictionary. The dictionary is not included. You ;; will have to get it yourself. Any file in the kanjidic or edict ;; file format will do. ;; In debian, use "apt-get install kanjidic" for a large dictionary of ;; Japanese kanji including a document explaining the format of the ;; dictionary file. Set `kdic-dictionary' and ;; `kdic-encoding'accordingly. ;; Inspired by kdrill, a drill program for kanji chars under X writte by ;; Philip Brown . The kdrill homepage can be found ;; here: http://www.bolthole.com/kdrill/. ;; Installation: Copy kdic.el into a directory on your load-path, and ;; add the following line to your ~/.emacs file: ;; (autoload 'kdic "kdic" "Practice kanji and vocabulary." t) ;; You can select subsets of the `kdic-dictionary' by customizing the ;; variables `kdic-filter' and `kdic-index-regexp'. Here are two ;; examples of how to set it up. First use M-x custom-group RET kdic ;; RET to customize the appropriate group, and then set the variables ;; as suggested: ;; Example 1: ;; Set kdic-index-regexp to "Jouyou grade level" and set kdic-filter ;; to "Distinct values" and choose the value "1". This will drill you ;; on the 80 easiest kanji -- the ones having a jouyou grade level of ;; 1. ;; Example 2: ;; Set kdic-index-regexp to "Spahn & Hadamitzky index" and set ;; kdic-filter to "Grouping", using sorting function ;; "kdic-index-sort", group size 50, and group number 1. This will ;; drill you on the first 50 kanji from the Spahn & Hadamitzky index ;; (which happens to be the book I use). ;; When you are happy with the selection, set `kdic-cache' to a ;; filename to use as a cache. This makes parsing and filtering of ;; the original dictionary unnecessary, speeding things up when ;; starting. Just delete the file when you want to use another ;; dictionary, or when you change the filter. ;; Advanced usage: ;; Filtering wizard: `kdic-word-filter' is a wizard that will help you ;; combine two dictionaries. This allows you to sort the kanji in the ;; kanjidic file as described above, and then sort the entries in the ;; edict file according to the kanji with the highest number. Thus ;; you can produce a list of words to learn that only require the ;; simplest kanji! Example: ;; Sort the kanji in the kanjidic file according to the "Jouyou grade ;; level", and choose group number 1 of size 100. This will sort the ;; edict files such that words with only Jouyou grade level 1 come ;; first. From these, the first 100 words will be used. ;; Flashcard export: ;; Flashcard.el by Jorgen Schaefer offers a doctor interface instead ;; of a multiple choice test. You can export the current vocabulary ;; into a flashcard file using `kdic-to-flashcard'. ;;; Code (require 'widget) (eval-when-compile (require 'wid-edit)) (defgroup kdic nil "Kanji Dictionary is a package to help you train Kanji or other characters.
