It is practical to map the "set-mark-command" to a function key, e.g.,

        (global-set-key (quote [f4]) (quote set-mark-command))

If you want to use Emacs as it behaves natively, another solution is
to change the hot key of Chinput's. (Sorry, I haven't any idea about
it because I don't use Chinput.)

Hope this message helps.

Hi, all:
  In emacs, when I press C-<SPC>, Chinput (popular Chinese input program) will start. So I can't "set-mark-command" with C-<SPC>.
  C-@ is for "mark-word", it is not very convenient.
  So how can I solve it?
  Thank you.

Actually M-@ is mark-word, C-@ is set-mark-command.

You can choose any key you like for set-mark-command, for example
M-SPC:

(global-set-key (kbd "M-SPC") 'set-mark-command)
