I added to keyboard_models.py (in the rhpl package of the python site packages) the keyboard, xfree/xorg call it "ca" instead of the "ca_enhanced" which is currently define as the french canadian. I called the entry "cn" and it shows up fine in the system-config-keyboard but then after I select it, I get an error about not being able to open the file cn, it then runs setxkbmap which seems to work fine.

I need to disable Shift-Space since it is used in many applications for a reverse-scroll shortcut. 2. I need to disable the Home key menu since it is VERY difficult to use a word processor without the Home key. The answer at that time was, "cannot be done." However, the FAQ says: Generic keybinding editing capability is in development, but until then, you can specify activating/deactivating keys(aka trigger keys or conversion-on keys with "-conversionkeys" option when you run htt_server. For X applications, you can change it by putting "*conversionOnKeys: Zenkaku_Hankaku space" into xrdb. So, I have three questions: 1. What is the status of "generic keybinding editing capability"? 2. How do you add the line above to xrdb? Can you give me a sample xrdb command line (it has many options) or should I edit a config file? 3. Is there any other way to disable Shift-Space and Home? -m From linux at alteeve.com Thu Feb 24 21:34:05 2005 From: linux at alteeve.com (Madison Kelly) Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2005 16:34:05 -0500 Subject: [Fedora-i18n-list] Kanji recognition Message-ID: <421E484D.5070106@alteeve.com> Hi all, This is my first post so I appologize up front if I fail to follow a rule (written or otherwise ;) ).

I'm not sure if I see what you mean, if you can input any Japanese after you press ctrl+space, it's the right way to do. If you need to do change the language on gimlet for inputting Japanese and want it by default, you need to set LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 in /etc/sysconfig/i18n or ~/.i18n. Japanese will be default after restarting your desktop session then. -- Akira TAGOH From tagoh at redhat.com Fri Feb 25 10:22:55 2005 From: tagoh at redhat.com (Akira TAGOH) Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2005 19:22:55 +0900 (JST) Subject: [Fedora-i18n-list] Kanji recognition In-Reply-To: <20050225030549.C5499F4C1E@skullbucket.dyndns.org> References: <421E484D.5070106@alteeve.com> <20050225030549.C5499F4C1E@skullbucket.dyndns.org> Message-ID: <20050225.192255.598552788702437731.tagoh@redhat.com> >>>>> On Thu, 24 Feb 2005 22:05:49 -0500 (EST), >>>>> "morpheus" == "morpheus" wrote: morpheus> Please try the following from the shell.

It's to change the default LE for that language or register the LE to choose the proper LE for that language. but it's not to change the LE on the incompatible locale. -- Akira TAGOH From petersen at redhat.com Fri Feb 25 15:25:10 2005 From: petersen at redhat.com (Jens Petersen) Date: Sat, 26 Feb 2005 00:25:10 +0900 Subject: [Fedora-i18n-list] Kanji recognition In-Reply-To: <421E484D.5070106@alteeve.com> References: <421E484D.5070106@alteeve.com> Message-ID: <421F4356.2090200@redhat.com> Madison Kelly wrote: > What I am looking for now, and I > hope this isn't off topic for this list, is a tool like my roommate has > on her WinXP machine where I can free-draw a kanji character and the > program tries to match it and provide a list of options (and if I am > really lucky has the pronunciation and meaning). Such free software exists but it is not included in Fedora currently. eg would probably be nice to add to Extras. > As an aside, I have also been trying to find a way to make Japanese > the default input method in iiimf.

It seems like 'gnome-im-properties' on my system only gives me the enable/disable IM and where the menu is displayed. I tried removing english (Latin) from gimlet but it seems to just add it back once I switch to a new program. Thank you for your help!
