[LUAU] X Input Methods

[Hawaii Linux Institute]

BTW, http://fedoranews.org/ has an article about HOWTO roll your own 
OpenOffice.org rpm from the official installer.

The main difference b/t Fedora's OOo package and the official installer 
is that the Fedora's packages allows multilingual applications.  With 
the official installer--I think--you have to run multiple installers, 
respectively, for multiple languages.

With iiimf, supposedly you can install from the tar.gz files which are 
distro-independent.  However, iiimf is still a work in progress, and, as 
I mentioned in my original "useless" post, at the present time, there 
are very few documentations.

I don't know how many here have used xcin to input Chinese characters, 
but it was ugly and grossly inadequate.  Fedora developers decided to 
make iiimf the default x input method for CJK in FC2. With a couple of 
iterations, it now works seemingly quite well.  The improvement is so 
drastic that the combination of iiimf and OOo may have a potential of 
mopping the floors with the Chinese version of Office, running in the 
Chinese version of Windows XP-Pro.  wayne
