Demonstration Effect

Simple demonstration effect

This section will showcase the adaptation and usage effects of the Mint Input Method.

Tip: It was originally called "Mint Pinyin", but after adapting to "98 Wubi", "86 Wubi", "Terra Pinyin" and "Double Fly Pinyin", it feels more appropriate to call it "Mint Input Method" ✪ω✪. Of course, it should actually be called 'Mint Input Configuration', but 'Mint Input Method' sounds better.

TIP

In essence, the Mint input method is a set of input configurations for Rime. Therefore, this website is also an unofficial Rime configuration document.

Supported Input Methods

Currently, three input types are supported within two major categories:

  • Full Pinyin class
    • Mint Pinyin: The flagship input type, supporting various reverse lookups, mixed Chinese-English input, and a rich full-spelling input experience. The dictionary is based on the Rime-ice Pinyin dictionary.
    • Terra Pinyin Mint Customization: Based on Earth Pinyin with additional customizations; the dictionary automatically synchronizes with Rime-ice Pinyin and uses the Python pypinyin library for conversion.
  • Double Pinyin class
    • Flypy Mint Customization: Customized based on Flypy Double Pinyin (phonetic-graphic), with additional customizations. The dictionary uses Rime-ice Pinyin.
    • Flypy Mint Customization: Based on Flypy Double Pinyin, with additional customizations; the dictionary also uses Rime-ice Pinyin. Supports phonetic-graphic (auxiliary code) input, with the ; key activating graphic input by default. If you are not used to ;, you can reconfigure the activation key. If you need a complete phonetic and graphic mixed input, you can introduce Flypy phonetic-graphic and extend the abc_segmentor scheme.
  • Stroke class
    • 98 Wubi Mint Customization: Customized based on the 98 Wubi to meet the needs of Wubi input; a lightweight version of 98 Wubi. If you need a complete experience of 86 Wubi, you can try the original repository.
    • 86 Wubi Mint Customization: Customized based on the 86 Wubi to meet the needs of Wubi input; a lightweight version of 98 Wubi. Similarly, if you need a complete experience of 86 Wubi, you can try the original repository.

Oh-my-rime has already adapted and integrated, but by default, the following input types are not activated:
