Hi, the program that works great with chinese and diacritics is TreeLine (http://www.bellz.org/treeline/). Basically I was loking for something taht would display data in a tree as Leo does and that would allow me to make a lot of notes around, define relations etc. The TreeLine is not that great (Leo really is!, you know it if you have used it). Strange thing is that I was able to input directly into Leo under Windows. So it should work under Linux too. Strange thing is that I can run Leo only from xcinterm-big5. When I press shift-alt xcin comes up, but when I type it input normal keys from my keyboard and ignores xcin completely. If I try to run it from xcinterm-gb2312 it gives me this error: Traback (most recent call last): File "./leo.py", line 195, in ? run() File "./leo.py", line 130, in run root = Tkinter.Tk() File "/usr/lib/python2.2/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1538, in __init__ self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className) _tkinter.TclError: Cant't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories: /usr/lib/tcl8.4 / then begins some mess with chinese characters and spaces and then it says: This probably means that Tcl isn't installed properly.
Well, I understand it only to the extent that I can say that I should reinstall Tcl. I did it,both dpkg-reconfigure and that from source. Nothing. Well I would guess that gb is maybe more sensitive (?) and that the error shows up in big5 only in the way, that I can't type. Any ideas?
