Instead of put Kanji you put only the Heisig's index kanji (stroke' numbers...) and to compensate you try to remember the kanji write it down.... I think it's brilliant, I really do!

This way I'll write them over and over again gaining a feel for the strokes. I think that drawing the kanji in the IME Pad(or whatever...) slows down the process, instead I just put the frame number because numbers are right above the letters. It's all a matter of input speed. Advantage: Input is faster(at least for me). Disadvantage: It does not practice kanji writing. But that can be compensated as I said above. Just use an exercise book and write the kanji when you learn and review. I think it's even better because when I first input and only used that for recalling, I got the stroke order but not that writing "fluency"(the only name I could think of).

I'm not sure I understand. What does the Heisig frame number have to do with recalling how the kanji is written? Nivaldo,

Just wanted to share a useful(I think) alternative for kanji input using Heisig's book. Khatz said somewhere that the process can be a bit tedious so I thought about an alternative to overcome that(some months ago). I put the keywords in the question section but in the answer section I don't write the kanji, instead I put it's frame number and follow along with Heisig's index to simulate the immediate appearance of the kanji in the answer question when doing the reviews. It's for those who are starting now or anyone that wants to try it. It worked for me especially because I type VERY quickly. :) Hi, everyone!
