ABSTRACT:
In a computer based approach to looking up characters in an ideographic alphabet, a user specifies characters by dragging individual character radicals from a radical palette to a canvas. A database is searched for characters that match character radicals dragged to the canvas and a selection window is produced that contain a resulting list of matching characters. The search may be limited by specified qualifying parameters, such as the total number of strokes in the character. When a desired character is chosen from a selection window, a unique character code is generated that may be output for various applications.
