When I started to study Chinese, I was looking for a way to type Chinese characters to learn pinyin, tones, and simplified character. You can download the required programs and files for free from Microsoft. Here is the link for Windows XP.

If you know pinyin, you can input the Chinese characters as fast as you can type. For a westerner, or at least me, pinyin is really important. I don't want to call my mother (妈吗 ma1ma5) a horse (马 ma3)! 理查
