Using MeCab for Word Segmentation & Part-of-Speech Color Highlighting

  1. Downloading MeCab's UniDic Dictionary

    1. Method 1: Automatic Download

      In the Dictionary Settings, expand Resource Download. If the UniDic dictionary hasn't been downloaded before, a Download button will appear. Clicking this button will automatically download and configure the path.

    2. Method 2: Manual Download

      The automatic download only fetches the commonly used version. If you want to use other versions of the UniDic dictionary, you can manually download and configure it.

      For example, after downloading the official latest version, extract it to the software's directory. It will automatically detect the path upon restarting. Alternatively, you can extract it to any directory and then set the path manually.
