Is there any site that lets me search for kanji by radicals in an ergonomic way? All sites I could find require you to scour gigantic lists to select the radicals you want, which is really painful.
The other options for looking up unknown kanji are using an OCR, or drawing it in a handwriting recognizer, both of which are tedious to use (if they even work).
But the thing is, KRADFILE contains all the information needed, it's just the interfaces available online that are cumbersome to use.
Consider the following example: let's say you see 諜, and want to look it up. Even if you only know basic vocabulary, you can easily think of 言 and 葉, which contain the radicals you're looking for. So if you could tell the computer, "show me kanji that contain the radicals present in these two kanji", you'd have an interface for looking up unknown kanji that's not a massive pain to use. (The alternative would be letting you search for radicals by name, but that would require you to use gay arbitrary names for radicals.)
The question is, does something like this exist? If not, I can make one and put it up on neocities. But I want to ask if I'm missing an already existing solution in case I'd be reinventing the wheel.
