I've found this same issue with Debian's aterm and kinput--I prefer what I ~think~ is called on the spot conversion and many seem to agree. > > no, i would like to hear your experience and also other experiences. the > main idea i try to apply is to make arch usable for every language that > is available on linux. we are now at the beginning of the Way we need to > make work. scim offers lots of flexibility and simplicity for GTK apps > (and QT apps once we have qt4 in the repos) but i see that X11 apps need > to be supported too. to me, the XIM is still partly a mystery (how to > switch between IM's and how to handle it user-friendly if you have more > than one XIM installed (e.g. gcin and scim)). Kinput and canna are a tried and true combo, albeit with some limitations. ~I~ think it'd be great if you included them. As for scim and how it should work (I hope that didn't come out wrong, I think you see what I mean) if you get a chance download Berry Linux's live CD> It's a Japanese distro, so they've got it right (at least by my standards). By got it right I mean, that if you hit ctrl+space, no matter what app you're in, you get the input conversion engine going. There's no need to take the mouse down to the lower right to choose the keyboard, etc etc. Of course I'm so used to shift+space that I keep hitting the wrong thing. :) - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Giles: I suspect your mother would want to... put it on the refrigerator.
