[Fedora-i18n-list] SCIM package repo for RHEL4
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

For people who want to use or test SCIM [1] on RHEL 4, an unofficial yum repo of scim packages is available at http://people.redhat.com/petersen/scim/ for i386 and x86_64. The packages are currently from Fedora Extras 3 and of course unsupported on RHEL. They are to be used at your own risk and please report problems directly to me.

[Fedora-i18n-list] few input methods for Tradition Chinese
by Tina Chou 13 Mar '06

Hi, Regarding the Nei Ma problem I asked last time. it is resolved now. The characters can be shown by switching to big5. > I tried to type some characters and punctuation marks by Nei Ma, but they > cannot be displayed (please see attachment). For example, "a141" is the key > for comma in Chinese. It is frequently used. Below are some other questions I have now: 1) Another question is, is there any shortcut key for switching between input methods? In xcin and iiimf, I type 'ctrl' + 'alt' + 'number' to switch. How about scim? Also, in FC4, I can type 'shift' + punctuation under any input method to get a Chinese punctuation. For example, shift + comma = ， (Chinese comma) shift + period = 。 (Chinese period) Can it work in FC5 too? 2) For Chinese input methods, nine characters are shown in one page usually. But for ChuYin and Dayi in scim, there are ten characters in one page, which makes users hard to migrate. Is there a way to change it? 3) Finally, I found x window not so stable. I was composing an email and editing a text file. It crashed when I switched between input methods. Also, when I hit Enter, the cursor moved down slowly. It that because it is still a test version? Thanks a lot!! Tina

[Fedora-i18n-list] Traditional Chinese input in FC4 in en_US.UTF-8 locale with iiim - possible?
by Sam Varshavchik 06 Mar '06

I'm running FC4 with an English desktop - en_US.UTF-8 I have a bunch of iiimf rpms installed and running. If I do something like this: LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim gedit Then in gedit I can switch to Chinese input with CTRL-SPACE. However, I also get the Chinese locale -- all menu items and prompts are in Chinese. Is there any way to run an application in the default English locale, en_US.UTF-8, but have Chinese input available via CTRL-space?
