A chrome plugin that will toggle highlight on characters that the user lists or is supposed to know on Wani-Kani. Original intent was to highlight Kanji that I am supposed to know already in web pages, as inspiration. I wish that I had a firmer pedagogical basis than that.
It looks like this when it is functioning: https://github.com/nigelkerr/character-reminder/blob/master/screenshot-0.7.jpg
Git clone this down or fetch the zip (https://github.com/nigelkerr/character-reminder/archive/master.zip) then install in Chrome as an unpacked extension.
Not very sophisticated. Barely documented. Owes a lot of inspiration and snippets of code to the very-sophisticated Furigana Injector (http://code.google.com/p/furigana-injector/), and to feedback on WaniKani.
The options dialog lets you enter your own list of kanji, or, if you have a Wani-Kani API Key, to get your list fetched from there. You probably don't want to refresh more than once a day.
Commentary and steering and such all welcome.
Now with a snappier name, "futoji" for "bold letters".
It would be nice if:
- The highlight color/effects could be user selectable
- Words and vocabulary could be highlit as well as just straight-up Kanji
- There was a better reason to use this plugin than "inspiration"!
Version 0.9: uses https urls to talk to wanikani.
