I just created a “Known Issues” page that you can now see up top here where I will keep a running list of things that I need to fix. Thanks.

Firefox 3 Versions Released! (watch for rough edges)

I was hoping to have some more time before the mozilla guys released Firefox 3, but today was the day, so yesterday I took the day off to get something ready by day 1 (and to play some MGS4). Happy to say I got the main issues worked out and have a usable version to [...]

Firefox3 RC1

I just installed RC1 and indeed the plugins do not work even though they were fine thru the beta. I am working on this and my goal is to have it working by the time Firefox3 is released. So maybe 2 weeks. もうちょっと我慢してください。

Firefox3 Beta Versions

Not enough to push out an update, but for those you really want to use this with the Firefox 3 Betas, you can download compatible versions in my “Box” on the left here. Uninstall the old versions first. Enjoy!
PS: Thank you to those who have already donated! I’ll be working hard this weekend on getting [...]

Worth a cup of coffee?

Is Chinese or Japanese Perapera-kun worth a cup of coffee?
My philosophy toward free software is that if I met the person who coded some program that really helped me out or I used alot, sure I would offer to buy him a coffee or a beer for his troubles.

Anyways, here’s the new. I [...]

Firefox 2.0 Updates

Both of my extensions have been updated to work with the new version of Firefox (2.0). No functionality changes have been added, just a compatibility update, so look in the next few weeks for a new version of Chinesepera-kun with some much needed changes and possibly an updated Perapera-kun (Japanese) with a few bug fixes/updates [...]

Finally Chinese Popups in Firefox

Finally it is here. An extension that does the same functionality as Rikai-chan did for Japanese, for Chinese!!!
This is a mod of my mod Perapera-kun, which was a mod of Rikai-chan. It works the exact same way as Perapera-kun including exporting words to a list for study. So you no longer have to pain thru [...]

Rikai-chan becomes Perapera-kun

An otherwise great plugin, Rikai-chan was patently missing the ability to export words. Most people who used Rikai-chan study Japanese and were not people who just wanted to skim a Japanese Hentai site!!…wait I take that back…they probably were, so for the few of us ACTUALLY studying languages or at least are doing so in [...]

Japanese and Chinese Resource Links - 8/17

Found some great resources today.

I found a blog awhile back called MutantFrog Travelogue which offers up interesting viewpoints on Japan related news/politics. In a recent post about which reports on Japan he respects he trivially tossed a link in his post to http://www.gregoryclark.net/ who is a used to be famous/is still famous australian who has [...]
