     KTRANS(6)                                               KTRANS(6)

     NAME
          ktrans - format of ktrans dictionaries

     DESCRIPTION
          Ktrans uses two plain text file formats for lookup dictio-
          naries, one each for implicit and explicit matches. Both are
          stored within /lib/ktrans.

        MAP
          The .map files provide the implicit matching information.
          The file is a sequence of lines, each of which is a single
          character sequence mapping.  Each mapping is a sequence of
          one or more input keys and output keys, separated by a sin-
          gle tab character.

          The following .map files correspond to the following conver-
          sions:

          hira.map
               Japanese Hiragana

          kata.map
               Japanese Katakana

          judou.map
               Chinese punctuation

          hangul.map
               Korean Hangul

          telex.map
               Vietnamese Telex

        DICT
          The .dict files provide the explicit matching information.
          The file is a sequence of lines, each of which is comprised
          of an input sequence, followed by a tab, followed by the
          list of all candidates. Each candidate is separated by a
          single space character.

          The following .dict files correspond to the following con-
          versions:

          kanji.dict
               Japanese Kanji

          wubi.dict
               Chinese Wubizixing (default)

          pinyin.dict
