Hi, I've been spending over a month or 2 on a Kanji learning program that I've been thinking about ever since my Gba homebrew days. I thought I'd release the first iteration of it and get some feedbacks.






Here's the readme :

This looks like a first step to what I'm trying to do. I'm eventually hoping to make a kanji flash cards program, but in the meantime, I want to make a library for simple Japanese input.

So my question is, what are you using to display your kanji and kana on the screen? I see the .fnt files in the data folder, so I was wondering if you have a library function that your using to read them, or if you wrote your own. Since this is one of the things that's holding me up right now, I'd really love to see some source code for this.

I built my own blitting code and load unix bdf files for the font.

An alternative I'm contemplating is to use the library FreeType that I discovered after I wrote my code :)

Using a simple texture blitting (having the whole font in a texture, and render a polygon per letter wouldn't, work in this case, since there's just too many kanjis to fit in a 512x512 texture, or hower needed.

My project is now on sourceforge : http://pspkanji.sf.net

Even of i use it everyday, im so disappointed that there's no update...
