Hi, Mr Yu Shao, are you there?
I am using your miniChinput-0.0.3-56.i386.rpm. While it works generally fine under locales zh_CN.GB18030 and zh_CN.UTF-8, it has a strange phenomenon with Gtk applications under locale zh_CN.UTF-8. When I press Ctrl-. to enable wide punctuation marks, and then press "." (for example), I will get a Chinese full stop in KDE applications like konsole and kate (under either a KDE session or GNOME session), but unexpectedly I will get four characters in a Gtk application like the GNOME terminal, Open Office, or Mozilla (v1.2 with Xft enabled). The first is the one I want, the second is at first a wide "2", but changeable if I press "^" or "-" --- it will then become a Chinese ellipsis or dash accordingly --- the third a TAB and fourth a wide "A". It comes only at the combination of Gtk and locale zh_CN.UTF-8.
Any clues? It is a little annoying.
I am running Red Hat Linux 8.0, with standard KDE and GNOME installed. I modified /etc/X11/gdm/locale.alias, adding a line "Chinese(simplified) zh_CN.GB18030" to log in with locale zh_CN.UTF-8. I hope you will be able to reproduce the problem.
Best regards,
Wu Yongwei
