What features did I add?
- Four times faster for converting.
- At the beginning of the year 2018 I received an issue report by psychelzh about a polyphone error. Now a new pinyin library has been added, which more or less solved the polyphone problem.
- Convert Chinese characters into Sijiao codes (literally four corner code).
- and Wubi codes (literally five-stroke).
- Some minor bugs were fixed.

How did I implement them?
- Following Qu Cheng's suggestions in personal communications, I converted the pinyin library into an environment to accelerate the converting procedure by the
pylib()
function. - A new pinyin library '/inst/lib/zh2.txt' was added and a parameter
dic = c('zh', 'zh2')
in thepylib()
function allows the users to choose a preferable library for polyphone. - New functions
fclib()
andfour_corner()
imports a four-corner library and converts Chinese characters into four-corner codes, according to Qu Cheng's suggestions. - A new function
wubi()
imports a five-stroke library and converts Chinese characters into five-stroke codes, again according to Qu Cheng's suggestions. - The downstream functions
bookdown2py()
,file.rename2py()
,file2py()
were updated to support the updates mentioned above.
Each part of the functions are well documented. Other files were updated automatically by compilation.
