My pleasure, and sorry for the slow responding -- I'm still moving only
very little faster ahead than the swamp of email I seem to be getting,
mostly on the Vim lists themselves -- and I've almost totally stopped
looking at bugzilla.mozilla.org bug mail since some point in February!
You can disable scim totally by right-clicking its icon, then "Exit" --
and by making sure that it doesn't get reloaded at next bootup. Or else,
you can keep it "safely" at "English (American)" which is what I do,
unless, maybe, the extremely rare times when I want some foreign
language keyboard (one whose glyphs are not built into my Belgian
keyboard, and it has most variants of Latin) for more than a few
keystrokes in some program other than Vim. (For Vim, I have a couple
owncoded keymaps, plus of course digraphs and i_Ctrl-V_digit, so I don't
feel an urgent need to learn how XIM works for East-Asian languages
anyway -- and for "just a few keystrokes" in any program I use gvim and
the clipboard).
Best regards,
Tony.
