三 三 ( ´_ゝ`)< Japanese Input Method SKK (Simple Kana to Kanji conversion) on your terminal

Project description

What is this?

This program provides Simple Kana Kanji conversion (SKK) input method service to your terminal. It depends on “Canossa”(https://github.com/saitoha/canossa), which is an off-screen terminal emulation service, “Canossa” makes application enable to restore specified screen region on demand!! So this SKK service can provide cool popup feature.

SKK Shell

You can enter SKK-shell mode by “C-j / $”.

When you launch console applications in SKK-shell, they run in floating windows. Each programs managed by “Canossa” works asyncronously in every windows. You can resize and move each windows with mouse operations. “Canossa” includes terminal multiplexer / task switching engine.

Requirements

Python 2.5/2.6/2.7 unix/linux/cygwin version

Install

via github

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/saitoha/sentimental-skk.git sentimental-skk
$ cd sentimental-skk
$ python setup.py install

or via pip

$ pip install sentimental-skk

upgrade install via pip

$ pip install sentimental-skk --upgrade

Usage

$ sskk [options]
  • Options:

    -h, --help                  show this help message and exit
    --version                   show version
    -t TERM, --term=TERM        override TERM environment variable
    -l LANG, --lang=LANG        override LANG environment variable
    -o ENC, --outenc=ENC        set output encoding
    -u, --use-titlebar          use title bar manipulation feature

How It Works

This program works as a terminal filter application and creates some PTYs. It hooks I/O stream between terminal and applications running on it.

The output stream which is recognized as STDOUT handle for applications, is duplicated and processed with the terminal emulation engine called as “Canossa”. Canossa has a virtual terminal screen buffer which consists with a couple of character cell objects, and behave as another terminal emulator.
