Cangjie converter

Question

Does anyone know of a Cangjie converter that can convert bulk texts to and from Cangjie codes?

Example conversions:

kb2 oiar grmbc jjomn oh egi --> 冇倉頡輸入法

冇倉頡輸入法 --> kb2 oiar grmbc jjomn oh egi

Thanks.

I found one (may be the only preexisted one throughout the Internet) on Github. Link: https://github.com/Jerryzhao-z/chinese2cangjie

Edit:

I've tried the script by following steps and it worked on Windows 10.

1. Install Python 3.7 and configure system environment variants.
2. Download source code ZIP and unzip it. Enter unzipped "chinese2cangjie-master" folder.
3. Create a new .txt file in that folder and rename it into "Convert.bat" (Note: the extension is changed). Edit this file and input following command lines and save.

python c_transform.py --input input.txt --output output.txt --mode 0
pause

4. Create a new .txt file in the folder and rename it into "input.txt". Edit this file and input Chinese characters need converting (such as "冇倉頡輸入法") and Save.
5. Create a new .txt file in the folder and rename it into "output.txt". Leave it empty.
6. Run "Convert.bat" and wait. After finishing, open "output.txt" and you'll get Cangjie codes (such as "xkb oiar grmbc jjomn oh egi").
7. If you want to convert Cangjie to character, just input Cangjie codes in the "input.txt" and change the number 0 to 1 in "Convert.bat" and run. You will get characters in "output.txt".

By the way, I actually don't understand Cangjie but I found the sentence "kb2 oiar grmbc jjomn oh egi" you gave will not be converted into "冇倉頡輸入法" but "kb２倉頡輸入法" instead. That means "冇" is represented by "xkb" according to the reversed convertion, but not "kb2". I don't know which is right, however, you can modify the dictionary files ("Cangjie5.txt" and/or "char2cangjie.json") to avoid this if needed, I guess.
