Usage

Create a code block (three ticks) with mahjong as a language. Provide mahjong notation like 123m456p789s11z. Once you click away from the block or switch to reader mode, you should see tiles.

Syntax

Tile Groups

Tiles are represented by their number followed by their suit (e.g., 1m, 3p, 7s, 5z). Groups of tiles are written without spaces (e.g., 123m for 1-man, 2-man, 3-man).

Example:

123m 456p 789s 11z

This represents a hand with 1-2-3 of man, 4-5-6 of pin, 7-8-9 of sou, and a pair of East wind tiles.

Special Notations Rotations

A single quote (') after a tile indicates that it's rotated 90 degrees (usually to represent a called tile from another player).

Example:

23m 45'6p 789s 11z

This shows that the 5-pin tile has been called and is rotated. Kans (Quads)

A double quote (") after a tile indicates a closed kan (quad). An additional tile with a single quote represents an open kan.

Examples:

123m 5555"p 789s 11z

This shows a closed kan of 5-pin.

123m 555'5p 789s 11z

This shows an open kan of 5-pin. Multiline Rendering For complex hands or to show discarded tiles, you can use multiple lines. Each line is separated by a space.

Example:

123m 456p 789s 11z
22'2s 44'4p

This represents a hand with 1-2-3 of man, 4-5-6 of pin, 7-8-9 of sou, a pair of East wind tiles, and two called melds: a triplet of 2-sou and a triplet of 4-pin. Red Five The 0 (zero) can be used to represent a red five in any suit. The suit is determined by its position among other tiles of the same suit.

Example:

123m 40p 789s 11z

This shows a red 5-pin among the pin tiles.
