Well this is what I initially thought. But SCIM packager told me otherwise. Just last one is enough with GTK_IM_MODULE=xim and QT_IM_MODULE=xim. Which will be likely to cause less trouble. First, im-switch package (which I am part of it.) is good start. Then I recommend scim-anthy for Japanese. If you also want to have traditional encoding terminals, m17n-env package may help. If your primary language is not Japanese, you probably want to keep display (or default locale) other than Japanese. scim and im-switch package comes with ample discussion on how to do it. Good luck. Osamu FYI: I am using scim-anthy under en_US.UTF-8. Osamu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
