Build the Windows platform's "soft five strokes" GBK version!

Author: Dalong transferred from: Five enthusiasts

Today, the five-stroke input method is full of flowers. However, Wang shuwushu (out of MS) is still used by many people because of its unique stability and scientific sorting of entries. However, it cannot output GBK Chinese characters, which is a pity, today, we will transform it to create a personalized "soft five pen" GBK version! And don't worry about any advertisement! (I hate advertising ).
Required tools: exists (ressen and so on), imegen (that is, the input method generator. After my test, the one in 98 will be fine, and 4.0 will be fine, but 5.0 won't work ).
Platform: I used Win2000 for production. It was never made on other platforms. I guess it is the same ).
Production process: For a brief introduction, we all know that the MS Office2000 disc (which is also available in Office XP) contains an English version 86 & 98. After installation, this input method cannot output GBK Chinese characters, in the settings, the "GBK" option is gray, that is, changing the settings to GBK in the registry cannot output GBK Chinese characters. Why? Because there are no GBK Chinese characters at the root of the five Lexicon!
The following uses version 86 as an example to describe the production process.
1. Find the materials required for the input method.
Install it on the Office2000 disc-> msimefolder-setup.exe! After the installation Prompt window is displayed, select "no" (because we need five Clips Instead of Pinyin materials). Then, the "Chinese Input Method component installation" will appear. Program "Window, select" 86 86 edition "," 98 edition ", and click" continue ". Note that the" OK "window appears later. Do not click it !!! Hurry up in the temporary windows folder temp (please find the environment variable, 2000 and XP are in the same place, 98 is different from them, if you can't find it, search it! :)) Find it! Copy all the "winwb *. *" files and a wubi. EXE file to a folder for backup. Click the "OK" window mentioned above. The above files under temp are automatically deleted.
2. Start production!
Use exnames to open winwb86.ime. (select all files (*. *) otherwise, you will not be able to find the ime file from the open file, or you can open exists first, and then drag and drop winwb86.ime to its interface ).
After the file is opened, find resounce-> dialog-> point setime, And then you can see autoratiobutton: GBK in the right window. Click it to display its attributes, you can see that a disable has been selected. Clear the selected disable and do not select it. Find the version-> 1 at the upper level, and change "filedescription" here. We will change it to the soft five input methods, which will affect the names of input methods that have been installed and added, the name in the input method list popped up when you click the "ch" (2000) or "en" (98) icon in the lower right corner. There are other items that can be modified. They are personal changes.

So far, we have changed these points: ① "GBK" is optional in the option.
② The names in the input method list are customized. There are two other places that have not been changed: one is the status bar of the input method, and the other is the name of the Input Method in the input list to be added. (If some places have changed, some places have not changed, do you think this is a good taste? :)) Next we will perform these tasks.
Use exparts to open wubi. EXE, This is the installation program, we will borrow it, of course you can also make your own installation program, (please refer to the five lovers forum for this)Article ), Please change the corresponding Chinese part in the string to the name you want to take. Here I will take the "micro soft five input methods", OK, to be added to the input method list! You can change it elsewhere to maintain consistency!
Next, the most important part is the name in the input method status bar. This name is not in the ime file but in the MB dictionary! Do you have to guess what to do? Change the dictionary? Not all. Because Microsoft's dictionary does not contain GBK Chinese characters and cannot output GBK Chinese characters, let's find a dictionary to borrow from qingqing and Haifeng, because the GBK Chinese Characters in their word library are relatively comprehensive (we cannot use many Chinese characters at all), and other word libraries, such as the best, can also be used, you have done it.
Install one of them and find the 86. MB dictionary file. Then, use imegen in Windows98 (the input method Generator for "inverse conversion" to generate a code table and change the input method name. I changed it to "soft five input methods ", after the name is changed, you can optimize the words at will. (We strongly recommend that you use emeditor to modify and optimize the words! It also provides the internal code conversion (saved separately) function ). Then, use the input method generator to convert the code table into a MB dictionary. Replace the original winwb86.mb file with this MB dictionary, and then package it into an installer using WinRAR or iexpress (which is included in the 2000 or XP system). Note that there should be no less than one file, otherwise, an error is reported. The 86 version of the input method is ready. If you want to, you can also use the same method to transform the 98 version!
Note: The built-in IME file can only modify resources and does not replace it;
If you have a code table, if it is a gb2312 internal code, use the input method generator under 98 to convert it into a MB dictionary file. If it is a Unicode Internal code, you can use the input method 4.0 to convert it. You can also use emeditor or (gbunicnv. EXE (available on the XP disc) to convert it to the gb2312 internal code, and then use the 98 version generator to convert it. And vice versa.
In this way, your DIY input method can run rampant on windows!
If anyone thinks this is an issue, I can upload it to show you how it works.
In case of any problems or errors, please point out. Thank you.
