It is strange that you cannot input anything in Chinese. When I tested scim-mode on Linux distributions (Ubuntu 8.04 and Fedora 9, etc.), it worked without trouble by using SCIM-pinyin in any case. This problem might not depend which language you use. Sorry, I cannot find the cause of the problem, with only the information which was shown up to now. I would like to know the more detailed situation. Here are some questions I would like you to answer: * Did you set the keybinding for `Trigger' in the `Frontend' section of `SCIM Input Method Setup' tool to any key event other than Control +space? Otherwise, you must remove `(scim-define-common-key ?\C-\ nil)' from .emacs file in order to be able to start SCIM. * Do any error messages come out by loading/using `scim-bridge.el'? If so, what kind of errors are they? * What value is bound to the variable `scim-imcontext-id'? If the IMContext is registered successfully, its ID number is set to this variable as a string. (ex. "5", "12", etc.) Otherwise, the value keeps nil and any key events are not sent to SCIM. * Did you test .emacs file which contains only scim-mode settings in order to examine whether there is elisp conflicting with scim-mode? * Which version of Emacs, which operating system, and which desktop environment have you used? I will add the template file for `scim-bridge-??.el' to the next release of `scim-bridge.el'. In the current version, the functions used for localization is included in not `scim-bridge.el' but `scim- bridge-ja.el', even though some of these functions which can be commonly used for all languages should be included in `scim- bridge.el'. Thank you very much for your proposal! Anyway, it is necessary for the program to work correctly first of all. S. Irie
