Not the same with chinput. chinput actaully let you input under a UTF-8 CTYPE. You just need an app which support proper UTF-8 locale. Of course you need to set the XMODIFIERS to @im=Chinput and set the locale to zh_CN.UTF-8 or zh_TW.UTF-8. The zh_CN/TW part is important, Chinput need those part. > So, I'm still stuck to Xcinterm-big5... but it works as well. I usually > start this one and open the other applications from there...

Use the xtt module, remove the freetype module. xfs-xtt will drag down your Xserver and make wiered things happen. > > > 6. are there any utility/script that convert my big5 chinese filenames > > to utf-8? > > didn't see any... > filenames are stored in unicode automatically in kde... but they can only > be displayed in kde apps correctly... :( > i have no experience for gnome only users, because i couldn't get gnome to > display anti aliased fonts in unicode... > I don't how the filesystem play with encoding. But 'find' and 'iconv' might help. man find man 1 iconv -- hashao| [EMAIL PROTECTED]@眾人皆有以，而我獨頑且鄙。 hashao| [EMAIL PROTECTED]@我獨異于人，而貴食母。 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
