fanlusky f56551c34b feat(engine): 内置搜狗、紫光、智能ABC、国标和拼音加加双拼方案
新增五套双拼方案表,零声母规则:
- 搜狗、紫光、智能ABC:o + 韵母所在键
- 国标:a + 韵母所在键
- 拼音加加:韵母第一个字母 + 韵母所在键

搜狗和紫光与微软一样把 ing 放在分号上。分号作韵母键原先按方案名写死为
microsoft,现改为 ShuangpinProfileUsesSemicolonFinal 按方案表判断,
引擎、Server 按键处理和下发给 TSF 的开关一并生效。

智能ABC 键位图把 ve 也标在 V 上,但这样 lv/nv 会同时解成 lü 与 lüe,
这里按标准智能ABC 把 ve 放在 M(与 ue 同键)。

Server 配置校验改为按方案解析结果判断;设置页下拉框、配置模板注释和
README 同步更新;新增各方案键位、零声母、分号及全方案逐音节往返测试。

Metasequoia IME for Windows

中文 README · Website · Docs · Privacy

CI CodeQL Release Downloads License Stars

A free and open-source Chinese and Japanese input method for Windows 10 and 11, built on TSF with no legacy IMM32 path.

This repository is the whole Windows product: the TSF text service DLL, the resident server, the conversion engine, a self-written native GUI framework, the HTML surfaces and the installer. The engine was imported from MSIME-Engine and specialized for Windows; it now lives in engine/ as a first-party component, so a plain clone builds the product. See engine/UPSTREAM.md.

This is a public beta. Expect rough edges and read the release notes before upgrading.

Install

Download the installer from Releases or the download page, run it, then switch with Win + Space.

Current builds are not code signed. SmartScreen will block them and uiAccess is unavailable, which means the candidate window cannot float above elevated applications. Verify the download with the SHA256 published on the download page.

You need the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 Redistributable (x64). The server and settings app are 64-bit; the x86 redistributable is a separate package and does not substitute for it. If you cannot switch to the IME, the server keeps exiting, or the settings window closes immediately, install that first.

What it does

  • Chinese input: full pinyin, double pinyin (Xiaohe / Ziranma / Shoudao / Microsoft / Sogou / Ziguang / Zhineng ABC / Guobiao / Pinyin Jiajia), Wubi 86
  • Japanese input: romaji, with hiragana, katakana and dictionary candidates; also available as a temporary mode from Chinese
  • Helpcode (形码) filtering on pinyin schemes: six tables, single- and double-code
  • Optional cloud candidates, and AI suggestions via DeepSeek / OpenAI / SiliconFlow / Groq
  • English-Chinese glosses in the vertical candidate window
  • Mixed Chinese-English input, emoji and kaomoji, a dedicated English candidate mode
  • Local input statistics (off by default): character counts and active time stay on this machine; view and clean them under Settings → Statistics
  • Voice input with streaming recognition and optional cleanup
  • Handwriting, on-screen keyboard, floating toolbar, clipboard history
  • User dictionary management, candidate frequency tuning, skins with light and dark variants

Privacy

An input method sees every keystroke, so the boundaries are stated explicitly in PRIVACY.md: which features reach the network, what each one sends, what the defaults are, and how to turn each off.

Two things worth knowing up front. Cloud candidates are on by default — the composition spelling goes to Google's input-tools service, and it is the only network feature that works without you supplying a credential. API tokens are stored in plain text in config.toml, unlike macOS and Linux which use the Keychain and Secret Service.

There is no telemetry, analytics or crash reporting of any kind.

Building and contributing

CONTRIBUTING.md has the environment, the build order and what to run before opening a pull request. Contributions do not have to be code — dictionary entries, documentation, icons and compatibility testing all count, and the recruiting page lists them by area.

Note that most issues, documentation and code comments are in Chinese. English pull requests and issues are welcome.
