Eastern Language Annotator

IFforClassroom
If you are learning East Asian languages, this web page annotator is great. (http://mandarinspot.com/annotate) Unfortunately, it can't read Squiffy Games :cry: For example, http://mandarinspot.com/annotate?u=http ... pinyin&o=h

This is asking quite a lot, but would there maybe possibly be something that someone would be willing to take the trouble to look into? No? That's ok, no problem. I'll get over it.

I've just always thought that IF is the perfect way to practice reading a second language. There are typically short bits of text that make the reading process easily manageable. Then there's the comprehension check which isn't an interruption of the narrative, but instead is the player's choice, click or type. The only thing I can think of to make IF more perfect is to have the text electronically and interactively annotated so that comprehension help is just a wave of the mouse away.

The MandarinSpot moderator says I need to paste this code somewhere in the game:
<script src="//mandarinspot.com/static/mandarinspot.min.js" charset="UTF-8"></script>
<script>mandarinspot.annotate();</script>


I use a Mac so I can't download the HTML. Is there some way to run this code in a Squiffy game?j

Thanks!

Nevermind, I'm an idiot. The the bookmarklet at http://mandarinspot.com/bookmark does the trick.
