Re: 1,000 Stroke Order Diagrams Available for Download

Rolomail <rolomail@xxxxxxxxxxx> dixit:
Last night the SODER project at KanjiCafe.com finished off the 1,000th
stroke order diagram and 1,000th stroke order animation . In addition to
the EUC-JP encrypted file names,

"encoded", Jim. EUC-JP may be arcane to some people, but it's not
exactly a secret code.

a Unicode named version of the files has
also been archived. One caveat for Mac users is that the decryption works
perfectly from the command line using "gunzip -d file.tar.gz" and then "tar
-xf file.tar". But for some reason the Unicode gets mangled by Stuffit
Expander.

That's Macs for you. 8-)}

Joking aside, congratulations on getting to 1000.

Here's a thought. Could you use existing information, such as the
radkfile decompositions and perhaps SKIP codes to generate automatic
first-cut SODs, which could then be tarted up by hand?

For example, let's say you don't have the SOD of 絶. The SKIP is
1-6-6 so it's a vertical split. The components are 糸 and 色 so
you should be able to stitch them together.

Next thought - supply SOD creators a library of preconstructed
components based on the kradfile/radkfile decomposition. They should be
able to build them with a sort-f drag-and-drop.
