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.

If you think this document or Mint Pinyin is helpful to you, you can invite me a cup of coffee; users who donate coffee ☕️ will be entered into the "Acknowledgements" (● '◡'●)ﾉ♥

Supported Input Methods

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

• Full Pinyin Category
  • 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.
  • Flypy Mint Customization: Customized based on Flypy Double Pinyin (phonetic-graphic), with additional customizations. The dictionary uses Rime-ice Pinyin.
• Double Pinyin Category
  • 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 Category
  • 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.
