Japanese developer SHINTA has made the first release of Anthy for ZETA, a Japanese input method that allows ZETA users to type Japanese text with higher accuracy than other existing input methods available for the BeOS platform. Anthy for ZETA is a Japanese input system that relies on the open source Anthy conversion engine developed for Linux by Yusuke Tabata and Yuichi Yoshida.

SHINTA's port of Anthy includes advanced features such as kana input, multiple input modes (including fixed half katakana input mode), post conversion and input assistance. A preferences applet is also included, so that users can configure Anthy with ease. Here are some screenshots for your delight.
