Hi, Is there a way to type Chinese using IIIMF without setting LANG to zh_cn@UTF-8 ? I want to keep my applications in English/Spanish and be able to type in Chinese. If I set the LANG variable to Chinese, all menus are displayed in Chinese and I don't want that. I'm able to achieve this using SCIM as input method, but it is neither part of Fedora nor the recommended input method. Regards, Rodolfo

- In Gnome, select "Internet/Intranet Input Method" by right click the mouse and then follow the "Input Method" menu.

- Add GIMLET to the desktop panel, use GIMLET to select which language/Inpu Method you want.

Hope it helps, Yu Shao Rodolfo M.

Gedit > Right click > Input Method

Then, choose Input Methods / Internet/Intranet Input Method. The GIMLET applet will appear on the panel (task bar). In my case, it shows "English". Clicking on the applet, do whatever necessary to select Simplified Chinese, then use pinyin to input Chinese characters. Don't use space bar while entering Chinese character, cause if you hit space bar, the applet will switch to show 英文, which indicates that pinyin input is disabled. To reenable it, click on GIMLET applet and select Chinese again. To disable pinyin (to enter English words), hit space bar, or Ctrl-Space Bar, or click on GIMLET applet and select English. This facility is not user-friendly yet, but at least now, I can use it effectively, after getting to know its bizarre behavior. Hope that helps. -- Daniel.

To add gimlet applet - right click on your panel -> Add to Panel -> Utility -> InputMethod Switcher.

Is it because you have upgraded iiimf-le-xcin to the latest version on the other FC2 machine when we were discussing this problem initially? :-) Try to upgrade again and see if it helps.

Login Gnome (language tried : Trad/Simplified Chinese) > Gedit > Right click > Input Method

'Ctrl+Space bar' switching between Pinyin/Canjie and English. Chinese input is possible

My problems were 1) If I can't find a Chinese character needed on the first page I can't switch to another page (additional/following page). This happens on all programs, such as, Kedit, Kmail, Gedit, OOo Writer, etc.
