HOWTO: increase typing speed in NJStar Chinese IME
If you are using "Pinyin" or "Zhuyin" input methods, please follow the following rules to achieve the maximum input effeciency using NJStar's Smart Pinyin IME.
- Type "phrase" whenever possible:
Example: 晚餐之后大家一起看电视 should be inputed as [ 晚餐] [ 之后] [ 大家] [ 一起] [ 看] [电视]。
- Make use of "shorthand" input ( 简化输入):
When enter word in Pinyin, please type full pinyin of 1st char, then only the initial of other chars.
Example 1﹕“中华人民共和国”= " zhong h r m g h g "。
Example 2﹕“南极星”can be inputed by any one of "nanjixing, nanjix, nanjx, njx, njxing ..."
Note: Under Pinyin input, The initial of "zh, ch, sh" (except of 1st char) will be in fuzzy mode, so you simply type "z, c, s"。
- Use "Recent Words" Recall (Shift+Space) to repeat recent input :
This feature is not available in "英文ascii" input mode.
- Use "Glossary" function (Alt+7) to shorten the common words input:
Example 1: add "un" =“ 联合国”, when you type "un" , you get “联合国”。
Example 2: add "oz" =“澳大利亚”, when you type "oz" , you get “澳大利亚”。
