Re: [Fedora-i18n-list] IIIMF inpinyin: Punctuations

Hi Ling,
It is possible to have more than one LE installed for a single locale. However, at present, there is a bug. It is not possible at present for user to select the LE desired if more than one for the same locale exist.

Going back to the problem you encountered, I suspect you could be using the newpy when those situation occured. May I suggest that you manually remove newpy LE by doing "rm /usr/lib/im/leif/newpy.so" and try again so we are sure that it is inpinyin that is causing and we will fill a bug against it.


Thanks,
Lawrence

Hi,

I didn't get the URL for testing guide (the archived email of "Testers Required for Next Generation Input Method" doesn't have it) so I might have done something really naive.

I installed iiimf-server, gtk2, le-inpinyin and packages they required. Launch gedit, click to select the "IIIMF" input method. A small box with English appears around the bottom of the gedit window. Ctrl-Space switches to the Pinyin input. So far so good.

I succeeded in typing some Chinese with this input method. The immediate awkward thing I found is the input of punctuations. Typing <space> (or any punctuation keys, I guess) without letters (i.e., no pinyin typed) put me into an unknown position: Only backspace can get me out. I tried to use <Escape>, number keys, but the situation just got more wierd.

It seems that more than two input engines for one locale can be installed. For example, le-inpinyin & le-newpy can be installed together for simplified Chinese. But I don't know how to pick one of them for gedit.
