Hi list,
I want to have an easy way to start different applications with
different shell environment varaibles.
I'm using simplefied / traditional chinese and japanese and have to set
LC_CTYPE and XMODIFIERS accordingly to be able to input the characters
into the application.
So, I though of having a Icon on my desktop for each input method and
then something like this in the command execution field:
LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.UTF-8 XMODIFIERS=@im=xcin %APPLICATION
The only problem is: what is the correct variable to replace
%APPLICATION with the program name I drag on that icon? I want to use
it in a drag-and-drop manner, like we can drag a document onto the
editor icon and then the editor opens that document automatically.
Is there a way to do this with programs instead of documents?
Is there a list of all available %SOMETHING variables?
A good candidate for this would also be kmail: sometimes I have to input
different scripts into my mails. As there is currently no way to simply
switch between chinese/japanese input methods in the running
application, would it be possible to start a new instance of kmail with
different environment settings when another one is running? I.e. the
running one for displaying the mailfolders and the new one with the
appropriate input method for typing a new mail?
Cheers
Arne
