Kanjidic2 Edict2

Any one of these kanjidic2 characters followed by an '*' character will give the most direct access to the edict2 dictionary view at kanji.aule-browser.com.

Here is a snap of the top of the HTML page of the Kanjidic2 characters:






Recognizing Kanji

I find that the Henshall page a kanji.aule-browser.com works well with the Beta 9.05 dictionary page.

Once I recognize the kanji on the first page, I can see the double character expressions in Edict2 on the second page.

These 9 kanji, taken in order descending the Henshall page, will traverse the Edct2 dictionary:

    意    観      好    昭      情      送      到      貿       礼

The Henshall kanji page begins as follows:


and the second, the dictionary, follows in order as:



The dictionary look-up does require the RTE browser plugin from Tokyo's SCSK Corp at curl.com.

There will soon be pages linking directly into the dictionary just as I now have pages linked into  wiktionary.org.

Those pages will start as Henshall, Heisig, Jōyō and Tuttle kanji sets.

kanji buttons

There are a few Japanese kanji on the buttons of the beta 0.903 of the Double-Kanji dictionary at kanji.aule-browser.com.

Here is a screenshot with the new NAV buttons:






A new filter option will add expressions that are two Kanji plus a single Katakana or Hiragana character.

In a few days the new UI and functionality will be the full dictionary with Katakana and Hiragana (simply without the double-character filter selected.)

The last feature is about two days away: browsing each item with details in a larger format.
