Software

• JDictd - my Java implementation of the DICT protocol as specified in RFC2229
• Some programs for mobile devices (mostly J2ME)
• The Vietnamese solar calendar applet and the solar-lunar calendar converter for mobile devices (mobile phones, Palm handhelds...)
• Vietnamsese word list. A sorted list of about 40.000 common Vietnamese words.
• Vietnamese text converter: converts text files among different Vietnamese encodings (VIQR, TCVN3, VNI, TELEX, Unicode...). Just extract the file and run vnconvert.bat
• Vietnamese word finder: analyze a Vietnamese text with the help of a word list to find out how often which words are used. Extract vnconvert.zip and consult readme.html for details.
• The Java interface to the English-Vietnamese-French dictionary
• Vietnamese keyboard driver and Vietnamese text converter. These utilities can be used with any Java program to type Vietnamese in TELEX, VNI or VIQR mode and to convert texts. Supported text-editing components: TextArea and JTextComponent (including all subclasses). Supported Vietnamese encodings: TCVN, VIQR, VISCII, VPS, among others. You can use the Viet keyboard driver with your text components. It is implemented as KeyListener and should be added to your text-editing components with the method addKeyListener. If you use java.awt.TextArea for text input, add the following line to your code:

  ta.addKeyListener(new AwtVietKey("Telex", ta, UnicodeEncoding.getInstance()));

  where ta is the TextArea. "Telex" is the input mode, you can also use "VNI" or "VIQR". The class AwtVietKey lies in the package duc.util.gui and UnicodeEncoding in duc.util, so these packages must be imported.

  The implementation for Swing text components is duc.util.gui.SwingVietKey, so the way to add the driver to a JTextComponent (e.g., JTextArea or JTextPane) is:

  ta.addKeyListener(new SwingVietKey("Telex", ta, UnicodeEncoding.getInstance()));

  To use another encoding, construct the driver with that encoding, e.g.,

  new SwingVietKey("VNI", ta, VISCIIEncoding.getInstance());
