# Rime (flypy) customisation Personal Rime setup for the [flypy](https://flypy.com/) (小鹤音形) schema, shared by fcitx5-rime (Linux) and Squirrel (macOS) so both behave the same. ## Files - `flypy.custom.yaml`: the preferences, layered by Rime on top of the shared rime-data. - `flypy_user.txt`: the user dictionary (custom phrases, symbols, missing characters). - `default.nix`: per-platform wiring (see that file for the details). The schema data comes from the `rime-data-flypy` package in `nur-ryan4yin` and stays untouched, so updates survive. Personal preferences and the dictionary live here. On macOS the shared data includes an empty `flypy_user.txt`, so the user files set `home.fileOverlapResolution = "override"` to win over it. ## Preferences - Right Shift switches CN/EN. Left Shift stays a plain modifier; Ctrl+Space also switches (fcitx5 on Linux, the system input-source shortcut on macOS). - Shift+Space does not toggle full/half width. - `[ ] { }` produce corner brackets `「」『』`. These sit in a schema-level patch rather than `default.custom.yaml` so they also override the `default` preset and flypy's own bindings, and to avoid colliding with the `default.custom.yaml` that ships in Squirrel's user directory. ## Hotkeys The flypy schema brings its own bindings. Two worth remembering: - Ctrl+J toggles simplified/traditional Chinese (简繁). - Ctrl+. toggles Chinese/ASCII punctuation (中英标点). ## Applying changes `flypy.custom.yaml` is a store symlink with an epoch mtime, so Rime does not notice when it changes. Remove `build/` and reload the Rime addon: ```sh # Linux: reload the Rime addon (`fcitx5-remote -r` only reloads fcitx5's own config) rm -rf ~/.local/share/fcitx5/rime/build busctl --user call org.fcitx.Fcitx5 /controller org.fcitx.Fcitx.Controller1 ReloadAddonConfig s rime # macOS: remove build/, then restart Squirrel rm -rf ~/Library/Rime/build ```
