Files from other project

• spark.tomoe.Tomoe (and other class under spark.tomoe package except HiraganaExtraDictionary)
  Classes Ported from http://www.libspark.org/svn/as2/Tomoe/
  Tomoe is the core class to analyze input stroke data.
  Usage:

  private Tomoe tomoe = new Tomoe();
  tomoe.addDictionary(NumberDictionary.getDictionary());
  tomoe.addDictionary(HiraganaDictionary.getDictionary());
  tomoe.addDictionary(HiraganaExtraDictionary.getDictionary());
  ArrayList res = tomoe.getMatched(inputStrokes, 30);
  tomoe.study(letter.charAt(0), inputStrokes)

• spark.tomoe.HiraganaExtraDictionary
  This class is not ported from original as2 project.
  It's the code generated from katakana.charcol and hiragana.charcol, using CharColXMLModelHandler.main()

• com.iteye.weimingtom.jkanji.CharColXMLModelHandler
  See HiraganaExtraDictionary

• com.iteye.weimingtom.jkanji.XMLModelHandler
  Try to analyze handwriting-ja.xml (large amount, so it's not embeded in java code like HiraganaExtraDictionary)

• com.iteye.weimingtom.jkanji.AWTIMEMain
  The code depend on Java AWT GUI, for strokes inputed by mouse on Windows.
  It's used to show strokes of kanji in left text box, see screenshot.
  It's also used to analyze strokes drawed in right space and output recognized kanji to console.
  (Press space key to clean input stroke area)
  NOTE: This class is not written well, input stroke area will be cleaned if the window go to background
  And,
  This class is ported to Android, see here:
  https://github.com/weimingtom/jkanji-android_4_2/blob/master/jkanji-android_v4.2/src/com/iteye/weimingtom/jkanji/HandInputView.java
  (not use xml data, only from data embeded in Java code)
