It looks like I have a working multilingual basic system now. The system runs on Lenny with Fluxbox as the window manager.
I am still not sure how to use SCIM to use prefix input for French in xterm but that can wait a little bit. Now, I am looking for a way to set fonts in xterm. My current xterm works well but the 2 problems I have with it are the small size and the lack of antialiasing, which is especially true for the Japanese fonts. The launch setting seems to be "-u8 -fn fixed" but I am not sure. I have tried a few methods documented on the web but none produced a satisfying result. 1) I tried the method documented on the Momonga page: http://www.momonga-linux.org/docs/TTF-HOWTO/ja/software.html I could not find any difference with the current setting. 2) I tried to start xterm with "-fa monospace" but the font size was way too big and did not support Japanese, the anti-aliasing was nice though. 3) I tried "-fa fixed -fs n" with various values for n but I lost Japanese support and the antialiasing was not very good. Any idea how I can set a font size for a font that will support both French and Japanese as well as antialiasing ?
