Hi List,
I would like to be able to enter some Japanese text while working in en_US locale. Back in FC4 I managed to do that by defining cryptic XIM environment variables an linking ~/.xinit.d.
I did not understant what I was doing then, but it worked.
In F-7, if I choose Japanese locale at GDM, I can press Ctrl-Space and enter Japanese text (thought it seems slower and less intuitive than what I had in FC-4).
What should I do in order to have it while keeping my localization at en_US?

Thanks, it works. And sorry for wasting your time instead of following the release notes more carefully.
What fooled me was that the im-chooser window has one option saying "Follow the system-wide configuration [SCIM]" and the the fourth "Use custum input method scim".
Since both said SCIM, I did not expect one to behave differently than the other. It might have been better if the text of the fourth option mentioned "for all locales" or somthing like that.
