MKROMDIC(1)

πŸ’– MKROMDIC πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the mkromdic(1) page β€” this is the little tool that compiles your romaji-kana conversion table and honestly? it's giving quiet overachiever. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

mkromdic β€” to compile romaji-kana conversion table πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSYS πŸ¦‹

mkromdic [options ...] file

(yes, the heading up there is spelled SYNOPSYS, no we are not fixing it, it's iconic, we leave it exactly as it is 🫢)


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like. mkromdic compiles a text file, file, which defines the translation rule between romaji and kana. that's the whole job. it takes your little rulebook and turns it into something usable. πŸ’…

and here's the tea: on top of the options listed below, it is also possible to pass cpp(1) options. so you're not just getting mkromdic options, you're getting the whole preprocessor menu too. main character energy fr fr. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -m β€” adds SOKUON rules to the obsolete format table which were used in Canna 1.2. heads up: that format table is literally described as obsolete, so this is a "for the archives, for the lore" situation, not a "do this in your fresh new setup" situation. πŸ™ˆ

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

look at this, it's so simple it hurts:

mkromdic romaji.kpdef

and boom β€” romaji.kp is created. that's it. that's the whole glow-up. ✨
