How to enter a raw pastebin file as a custom table

[TexNat]

I am trying to use RIME to type japanese, and i need to add kana to the table, the link i was provided with to do this was just a pastebin file(http://pastebin.com/raw/CK0zzC4D) with what i assume are the key combinations followed by the characters to be produced. how am i intended to install this as a table?

You should add the content to your custom dict .yaml file, like this

あ   a   100
い   i   100

i see, and where would this file be?

Can you read docs in Chinese? This totorial covers the steps to implement a custom dictionary in Rime: https://github.com/rime/home/wiki/RimeWithSchemata#%E7%A2%BC%E8%A1%A8%E8%88%87%E8%A9%9E%E5%85%B8 It's a non-trivial task. You might find it helpful using one of the available configurations from this thread https://github.com/rime/home/issues/68#issuecomment-325898895

I'm also interested in knowing why you needed to type Japanese with Rime instead of using a Japanese IME.

I'm using Rime because to my knowledge there is no japanese IME that uses a stroke-based input method instead of a phonetic one, so i'm using ZhengMa through Rime.

OK. I see what you are trying to do.

As a quick solution you may merge the kana table into the one for Zhengma.

Or if you do not like copying code around, import the kana table from (for example) japanese.kana.dict.yaml by editing the YAML header in zhengma.dict.yaml:

# zhengma.dict.yaml
---
# add the following lines after the original YAML config and before ...
import_tables:
  - japanese.kana
...
