HI tbf the built-in Chinese input method is painful
i used to use ibus.el in emacs（but it is dead i think） l some minor problems i have 1. unless locale is set to Zh_CN.UTF-8 i cant type chinese under X，no problem in Term though i need to start emacs instant with LANG=zh_CN.utf8 emacs in bash if i dont want to set system locale 2. Ctrl-Space （or Win-Space） might be conflict with input methods change，make marks harder （use Ctrl-@）as alt 3. Latex is a little little but complex as you need CJK PACKAGE to make it work FYI On Fri, Nov 20, 2020 at 09:43 <[email protected]> wrote: > On Fri, Nov 20, 2020 at 08:13:54AM +0100, deloptes wrote: > > Fabrice BAUZAC-STEHLY wrote: > > > > > GNU Emacs comes with > > > > did someone asked about Emacs and I missed it? > > The Emacs religion followers never sleep :) > > In a way, Fabrice is right: Emacs would solve one thorny > problem, that of the input method, which X leaves to a bunch > of strange and opinionated plugins.
