Usage 使用

Bopomofo keyboard layouts 注音鍵盤排列

In case you don't know: "Dachen" is the most common keyboard layout, which arranges Bopomofo symbols sequentially in columns.

As for "Hsu's Bopomofo Layout" and "E-Ten 26-Keys", they are more ergonomic Bopomofo keyboard layouts. One of the reasons I developed this input method editor is that I want to use a consistent Hsu's Bopomofo Layout on both my computer and my phone.

以防您不知道：「大千」就是市面上最常見的那種一列一列將注音符號依序排列的鍵盤。

至於「許氏鍵盤」與「倚天26鍵」、「大千26鍵」都是比較符合人體工學的三排式注音鍵盤排列，我之所以開發這個輸入法編輯器，原因之一，就是我想在電腦上、手機上使用一致的許氏鍵盤。
