NAME

ktrans – format of ktrans dictionaries

DESCRIPTION

Ktrans uses two plain text file formats for lookup dictionaries, one each for implicit and explicit matches. Both are stored within /lib/ktrans.

MAP

The .map files provide the implicit matching information. The file is a sequence of lines, each of which is a single character sequence mapping. Each mapping is a sequence of one or more input keys and output keys, separated by a single tab character.

The following .map files correspond to the following conversions:

hira.map

Japanese Hiragana  

kata.map

Japanese Katakana  

judou.map

Chinese punctuation  

hangul.map

Korean Hangul  

telex.map

Vietnamese Telex  

DICT

The .dict files provide the explicit matching information. The file is a sequence of lines, each of which is comprised of an input sequence, followed by a tab, followed by the list of all candidates. Each candidate is separated by a single space character.

The following .dict files correspond to the following conversions:

kanji.dict

Japanese Kanji  

wubi.dict

Chinese Wubizixing (default)  

pinyin.dict

Chinese Pinyin
