Draw Me A Kanji

For the sake of simplicity, "Draw Me A Kanji" is shortened to dmak

Usage

Using dmak.js is easy, a lot easier than writing kanjis!

Prerequisite All the hard work with SVG is done by Raphaël, a cool and simple Javascript library to play with vector graphic on the Web. And... that's it! Include both raphael.js and dmak.js files in your HTML file.

Up to you to use either:

Vanilla JS

<div id="draw"></div>
<script>
  var dmak = new Dmak('電車', {
    'element' : "draw"
  });
</script> 

or the jQuery plugin

<div id="draw"></div>
<script>
    // That's it!
    $("#draw").dmak('電車');
</script> 

NOTE: You need to include the additional jquery.dmak.js file

Customization

Dmak.js comes with a whole set of options to alter the way it behaves. Here is an explicit list of all parameters available to you followed by their default value.
