file walker

The spin control now walks the 9 files in order as the sort imposed by the SpinControl is defeated by using a format spec to take the spin values as indices into a jōyō char array.

You can now go through about 200 characters before another file loads.

The font sizes have also been revised up for the spin control and the character entry field. But still only Beta 9.0.9 as a few quirks remain in the search algorithm for double-kanji expressions.

This Curl web content page displays the edict2 Japanese-English kanji dictionary by traversing 9 files using light-weight objectsand no database. It requires the Surge RTE browser plugin from www.curl.com

kanjidic2 spinner

I have added a page with 12,300+ Japanese Kanji from kanjidic2 loaded into a spin control.

You can see the widget between the text field and the definitions button in this screenshot:

Logic to link the file to open for that character should follow in due course.

In the image you are seeing the characters in a free Hanazono font called HanaMinA.

kanji SpinControl

I have added two kanji Spin widgets or SpinControl's at the HTML+Curl edict2 Japanese-English dictionary views page.

You can see them at the top in this screenprint:

The first spinner is for the jōyō kanji and the second holds the kanjidic2 kanji with a "frequency" value. The latter can be seen in the Curl app at http://www.aule-browser.com/kanji/kanjidic2-freq-curl.html.

Some of these pages will soon appear as Android and iOS app's thanks to the Curl CAEDE project.
