Great! Thank you very much! would it also be possible to have anthy and scim-anthy for japanese (which is my favorite input method for japanese. I have never been able to use scim-tables correctly, and scim-anthy is the one the guys from the scim mailing list advised me. The INSTALL file for anthy is in japanese but I can translate it for you if you want) and skim, a scim front-end for kde. Sorry for asking more...
