2006-05-23 16:16:40 Loïc Martin description Although language-support-zh installs scim and scim-pinyin (along with other Chinese im), it doesn't configure the system to allow using scim in applications. Even starting OOwriter with that line : GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"; oowriter doesn't provide scim input. And scim is inacessible through gedit im selection (right click). (The documentation in /usr/share/doc/scim is really nice, I've read it, but it's either not explicit enough, or there's to many assumptions about the reader's skills.) Although language-support-"any CJK language" installs scim and scim-"any CJK input", it doesn't configure the system to allow using scim in applications others than the ones using the gnome input method selector if your session isn't a CJK session. If we don't want to set scim as an input method for all locales, there should be a central place to allow users to set scim as the default input method for the locale they are using. It could be an application, or better a button added in System>Preferences>Scim Input Method Configuration (best solution since it's available for any user on a per-user basis). For Dapper, if time is to short for that before the release, any icon lauching a script that detects the locale used and then launch im-switch -z "LOCALE used" -s scim in a terminal would be enough (alternatively it could run im-switch -s scim_xim -z default). Only need to be checked the possibility to reverse the situation (using the same script that would detect if scim is exported for the locale used in the session, then if not set it, if it is it would unset it) and the fact that it shouldn't affect other users with the same locales (idealy, only the user that has chosen to use scim should be affected)
