โœจ Improved Reader Experience 2

A second iteration based on the feedback received after the last update - The goal of this update was to make better trade-offs. Here is what has changed:

  • ๐Ÿ“– Back to Automatic Progress Tracking. You can still manually move the marker on any block, but pagination will now automatically update your progress.
    • When performing a search and jumping to a result, a banner will appear at the top of the screen, allowing you to return to where you were if desired.
    • The marker is only visible at the beginning of the reading session.
    • The "Mark this page as read" button has been removed.
    • Tooltip instead of dialog for the context menu when selecting a block.
  • The Highlight on a block is now an option (off by default).
    • With the change it was actually no longer useful but some people enjoyed it.

#096
2024-02-13
v0.7.0 Subtitles/Mining/Dictionary improvement
  • ๐Ÿ“™ Dictionary improvement: Definitions are now grouped when possible. This update will massively reduce the number of tabs in the popup dict, not only that, but also partially solve the issue that some people were getting annoyed with the presence of stdict entries. You will now see them much less due to the grouping. ๐Ÿš€
  • โ›๏ธ Mining improvement:
    • Re-record the audio to change the range: yup finally it is coded
    • You can now also edit the sentence manually if you wish.
  • ๐Ÿ”ค Subtitles improvement:
    • Smooth rounded background for subtitles, probably the most useless feature I ever coded but
    • The current active item is now highlighted in blue.
    • Stop mode: pause on each sentence now available in settings from the popup, a setting specific per video. Pause on 1T will be coded another day as this is much more complicated to get it right.
    • Hide subtitle option, the option is there, but it is probably useless because I haven't coded a shortcut for it yet. I'm unsure how I want to handle shortcut in a way I'm not mixing with youtube/netflix/any other website yet. If you got a clever idea, don't hesitate to share.
    • Adjustable height for subtitles placement - in case you need it. Many small fixes and stuff done as well. We also got a new kimchi art for /dict

  • Released a new Anki Addon https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1844914046 to sync.

How do I use it ?

  1. Find a sentence where you have only 1 word that you don't know, open that word and click on โ›๏ธ Mine sentence
  2. One day, open anki and install the addon, the first time you'll have to configure a bit, and then you'll just have to hit the Sync button.

Stuff useful to know

  • The sync goes from kimchi to anki, not the other way around. Only add/update are sync, not delete. (This make the anki addon safe from scary bug)
  • Image and audio capture are awesome but it's not possible everywhere . Here's the compatibility table:
+-----------------------------+------+-------+-------+
|                             | Text | Image | Audio |

Released 0.3.8 - Added the support for the two word thing in one word Also changed the know pair list to have 37982 entries. A bit more lenient but I will monitor whatever this is actually helping more than adding error. If you encounter annoying case don't hesitate to tell me. hopefully with time I can find a good balance on that

Upgraded the lemmatizer to sometime (8824 know pairs so far, to be improved over time) recognise pair of words, typically when you got 2 words in a single word without space. A good example is the 18th story of ์™ธ๊ตญ์ธ์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ํ•œ๊ตญ์–ด ์ฝ๊ธฐ, it contains the word ๊ธˆ๋„๋ผ (golden ax) which does not exist itself in the krdict however ๊ธˆ (gold) do exist and ๋„๋ผ (ax) also exist. See screenshot, it now would consider them as 2 word with different status and definitions. A release for the extension is coming later.

I released a way to import epub and convert it to markdown. The conversion is "best effort" and no image are included. This should be good enough to read book on it. If your import failed or was all broken, don't hesitate to tell me so I can look into it. Books can be large but it should be decently fast even on your phone.

Hello , I silently released something quite cool but it's very alpha โ„ข๏ธ you can expect bugs ๐Ÿ› . Basically now kimchi-reader.app is installable on your phone and you can upload some text to study. This is the foundation for the many feature I have in minds but the direct advantage that you can have starting today are

  1. Being able to study on pc and continue your session on mobile.
  2. Use Kimchi Reader without internet (partially, but the core function of studying should works)
