Its wonderful. Its amazing. Yeah, I really love it. I could praise emacs for hours. And I wont lie and wont get tired. Because I like it that much, I decided to use emacs on my linuX-PDA, too. It compiles. Great. There is no obvious difference between Desktop- and PDA-emacs, besides -geometry :) The OS I use is called pdaXrom. It has a running XServer and a big application feed. But I wanted to compile emacs by myself. Now the bad news. If I start emacs and do M-x set-input-method ---> japanese I can enter romanji words and I get hiragana. So I expect. But it displays only some signs, others are missed if I type. If I go back with the cursor, the signs appear. They are present. And I can use edict-el to lookup the dictionary. This works, too. So it seems to be a problem with displaying/updating the screen. I didnt get into emacs deep. I guess, its a configuration problem or a buggy library on my system. I did ldd emacs and on the pda its linked with libXaw. On my Desktop-System emacs isnt linked against libXaw. Could this be the problem? What remains to be done? Am I the only one, that is become aware of this problem? Could you send me some hints? Thank you in advance Enno
