Syllables
This .zip file expands into a directory called syll. It, in turn, contains a
directory named ltr, which contains the images of the individual letters of
the alphabet. The syll directory also contains 19 subdirectories
c1 through c19, one for each of the "main consonants."
You should move the syll folder and its contents (which come to a total of
some 2,400 files, so you have been warned!) into the kintro folder which
you created when unpacking kintro.zip above.
Programming Information about the Syllable Images
This section is for those people who wish to write Javascript code to manipulate
the syllable images, or wish to understand the code they've downloaded. If you're
not a programmer, you may safely ignore this information.
Each syllable's image has the name consisting of the letter s followed by
a number which is generated by this formula:
number = (begin_consonant-1) * 588 + (vowel-1) * 28 + (end_consonant) + 1
followed by the suffix .gif
The begin_consonant is the number of the first consonant as shown in the
table below:
The vowel number is given according to this table:
The end_consonant is given as shown in this table (if there is no end consonant,
use a value of zero).
