  Description     : A tool to assist English speakers to understand Chinese


  Step Into Chinese is a flexible language-mining tool to assist 
  English speakers seeking to understand Chinese language. 
  The lack of a one-to-one correspondence between Chinese characters 
  and the corresponding Pinyin is often regarded as the greatest 
  difficulty facing learners of Chinese. 
  Step Into Chinese has been designed to address exactly this
  difficulty. 
  .
  Inside is an extensively cross-referenced data structure 
  which allows the user to pursue deeper understanding of
  contexts, for example, by "locking on" to a particular Pinyin context
  and viewing successive instances of the same morpheme used in similar
  contexts.
