[gentoo-user] how to japanese intput
Hello! I'm using Gentoo 2005.0, KDE and Fluxbox. I want to be able writing in japanese. Is there step-by-step setup guide for this. I looked at internet there some information, but each site has its own differences. I dont want to japanise everything - only japanese input needed. Also with Emacs. askar -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Just install it as well as whatever input methods you require and run it. No messing with locale settings or anything. I'm currently using it with canna and skk. I'm not an emacs user so not sure about that one. I know that ddskk is easy to install and comes with a tutorial if you like SKK, although the tutorial is in Japanese. The other emacs package for Japanese is tamago, which has the description Emacs Backend for Sj3 Ver.2, FreeWnn, Wnn6 and Canna. Regards, Jason Stubbs pgpE8fch2hfKg.pgp Description: PGP signature

http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~kdeeter/gentoo-jap-guide/ This is old, but for the most part works. I use canna and kinput2 and it works fairly well for most regular things with fluxbox.

I am also using canna and kinput2. Since I don't need japanese input in
all my applications, I'm using two scripts to start kinput2 and an
application with japanese input enabled.
This one starts kinput2 with a connection to the canna server
(canna.sh):
#!/bin/bash
export XMODIFIERS='@im=kinput2'
export LANG=ja_JP.eucjp
export LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucjp
kinput2 -canna
And this one starts the application you want with kinput2 support
(japan.sh):
#!/bin/bash
XMODIFIERS='@im=kinput2' [EMAIL PROTECTED] LANG=ja_JP.eucjp
LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucjp ${1+$@}
(the last 2 lines are actually one long line)
So, when I need to write japanese text in openoffice, I only have to:
$ ~/canna.sh
$ ~/japan.sh oowriter
And then press shift+space to switch between the different input modes
supported by kinput2, space at the end of a word if I want to convert it
to kanjis and enter to choose between the different kanjis available.
I am not using KDE nor emacs but this should work for KDE applications
and XEmacs.

Re: [gentoo-user] how to japanese intput
Thanks.
I created these 2 scripts (canna.sh and japan.sh) you wrote below.
But I couldn't execute them. Do I need to do smth like chmod?

Hello,
Those scripts must indeed be executable to be executed.
$ chmod u+x canna.sh
$ chmod u+x japan.sh
will take care of that.
You can also create aliases for them if you're often using them (it
saves time).

[ebuild N] app-i18n/canna-3.7_p2 -canna -doc 1,233 kB [ebuild N] app-i18n/kinput2-3.1-r1 -canna -freewnn 500 kB Total size of downloads: 1,733 kB Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] no Looks like you'd need to add 'canna' and 'freewnn' to your USE flags-- check /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc and/or /usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc to find out if you do. Otherwise, there's not too much too it other than emerge and go! Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
