Comment #39 on issue 526 by [email protected]: Dead keys (^`~ etc) don't work in XIM programs
http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=526
Hi, I'm a French terminal geek living in Japan, and not being able to use xterm anymore was a real pain for me too. You may want to try another terminal instead. I got most satisfaction from http://www.os-cillation.de/en/open-source-projekte/xfce-terminal/ which is small, and which I could set up to look like my previous xterm (I may even suggest you choos a font like Computer Modern Bright Light, which is good for both French (except wide chars like ellipsis « … ») and Japanese). However, for some reason, it seems I switched by to scim some time ago (I don't remember), and I don't have time to check whether this term and ibus is satisfactory enough for me. So, Scim, LANG=fr_FR_UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8, and the terminal above is a good enough solution for me. I don't know if scim's good enough for Chinese (e.g., it's bad for Korean on top of a non-qwerty layout, since not using qwerty will scramble the already quite ergonomic Korean layout.)
