A downloadable tool

A lightweight Cantonese IME pad focused on speed and simplicity

Type using Jyutping, select results either with the Enter key or double click, and the result appears on the output box on the right side

Also works on Windows XP!

This app is a small experiment in building fast and focused tools that do 1 thing well

Features

  • Search by Jyutping with fast "starts with" matching
  • Select results by Enter or double click
  • Build output text progressively by appending
  • Copy output to the clipboard with one click

How to Use

  1. Type Jyutping in the search box
  2. Select a result item (by pressing Enter from the search box, or by double clicking on the list)
  3. The selected word is appended to the output box
  4. Copy the final text when it's ready
