Hello.
In TextEditor or Terminal (in fact, all GNUstep applications) xim (scim
1.0) doesn't seem to work.
I don't know if other xim works, in my case I made sure environment
variables are correctly set, and Chinese input is working fine for gtk
applications like firefox & thunderbird. With GNUStep applications I can
call on the xim software with ctrl+space and they do respond with a
input window, but typing any Chinese characters, the Chinese character
would not appear in the text area.
I first think this is font-related, but I already set in Pref.app that
for every case the font used is Wenquanyi (a font contain Chinese
ideograph glyphs). Then I think it is backend related. I am using arts,
next alternative is cairo (doesn't work for me, have problem to properly
display text) and xlib (could not manage to install this backend, issue
mentioned in a separate post).
I also googled around and found most discussion about xim and gnustep is
6 or more years old. Seems nothing was happening related to xim in
GNUStep for some 5 to 6 years.
And, where do I start from here?
Thanks in advance.
