XIM InputI am glad to inform you of XIM (X Input Method) support in AMSN, which means we could finally type Traditional Chinese... AMSN via XIM server, such as XCIN. Here are my instructions:1. get Tcl/Tk tarball with i18n patched wget http://jserv.sayya.org/tcl-i18n/tcl8.3_8.3.3-7.tar.gz
wget http://jserv.sayya.org/tcl-i18n/tk8.3_8.3.3-8.tar.gz 2. apply zh_TW locale patch wget http://jserv.sayya.org/tcl-i18n/tcl8.3-fix-zh_TW.diff
cd tcl8.3-8.3.3 patch -p1 < ../tcl8.3-fix-zh_TW.diff 3. build Tcl with /opt prefix (It's my case only, and you can change it as you like) ./configure --prefix=/opt
make ; make install 4. build Tk cd tk8.3-8.3.3
./configure --prefix=/opt make ; make install 5. patch AMSN to adapt our own Tcl/Tk runtime (/opt/bin/wish8.3) wget http://jserv.sayya.org/tcl-i18n/amsn-0.91-fix-path.diff
cd amsn-0.91 patch -p1 < ../amsn-0.91-fix-path.diff 6. launch AMSN ./amsn
That's all. Now, we could use XCIN as XIM in AMSN, and everything goes around. Here is my screenshot of patched AMSN and Tcl/Tk: screenshot Notice the Chinese characters rendering well. cheers, Jim Huang <jserv AT kaffe.org> Created by: airadier last modification: Sunday 06 of March, 2005 [10:16:50 UTC] by clear_beast |
