Interesting.

The "data file" http://maxiangjiang.googlepages.com/ChineseIME.dict 
doesn't seem to be in the "key, space, hanzi" format described in the 
ChineseIME.vim plugin.

Maybe someday (if I come around to it) I'll try to build a datafile by 
Kangxi (or similar) radicals and strokes, for people who can "see" hanzi 
and maybe even "understand" them but not "say" them. I might even 
already have the needed data in a different format somewhere on this 
computer.


Best regards,
Tony.
