Add support to Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese #47

In Chinese, Japanese and Thai, words are not separated by spaces. In Vietnamese, a word is usually separated by one or more spaces.

I guess it can be solved by adding dictionaries.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! Yes, you're right, at the moment VocabHunter is limited to languages where we can find words separated by spaces. It would be great to add support for other families of languages in the future. I'll add the "Feature Request" tag to this and let's see if someone is able to help out with an implementation.

How time flies. There is a list of tools for word segmentation:

Hope somebody can implement it: let the user download these word segmentation tools into a folder, then specify how to call their word segmentation functions in the VocabHunter settings.
