Pinyin Tones WordPress plugin

This is a small WordPress plugin allowing you to turn digital pinyin notation (Chinese transliteration standard) into a diacritic one. It turns out to be very useful if you type chinese grammar lessons.

For example, «Wo3 shi4 Mei3guo2 ren2» turns into «Wǒ shì Měiguó rén».

Latest version can be found on WordPress plugins site.

Installation

1. Unzip pinyin-tones.zip into /pinyin-tones/ directory
2. Upload /pinyin-tones/ directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
4. Use [pinyin][/pinyin] syntax to format your pynyin notation.

If you are looking for a way to make this kind of transformation, but not as a WordPress plugin, you can find the code and its explanation in my blog.
