Description:
This simple script creates a new gnome mahjong tileset. The tile set will be named temp.xpm . And, will contain about half of the Japanese hirigana To use the tileset, execute this script. Then, change the file temp.xpm to an PNG file, with the .png extension. Then, copy the file to the gnome-mahjonng tileset directory. On my system, this is /usr/share/pixmaps/mahjongg. Start mahjongg, go to the Settings->Preferences menu. Once the new window has loaded, select the new tileset in the Tiles frame. Then, click OK. You sould see the new tileset!
Caveats:
Mahjongg does not use perfect matching. So, often two unrelated characters will need to be selected to move forward in the game. I'm trying to get a "Perfect Match Only" option added to gnome-mahjongg in the future to avoid this problem.
Syntax:
./mahjongg_hirigana.pl
