dxhanziim(1X)
NAME
dxhanziim - An input server for Simplified Chinese
DESCRIPTION
In a Motif environment such as CDE, Asian language input methods are
supported by independent processes called input servers. The Simplified
Chinese input server (dxhanziim) is an X client process that can run on a
standard X server, provided that the server system has the required
Simplified Chinese fonts installed. This means that the input server can
run on any system that can access your X display device, including the
device itself.
Starting the Input Server
If your CDE session language is set to Simplified Chinese, the Simplified
Chinese input server is started automatically, and both the language
setting and the Simplified Chinese input method is available for
applications that you start during that session. If your session language
is not set to Simplified Chinese, you can switch to Simplified Chinese from
a terminal emulation window by setting the LANG environment variable to a
Simplified Chinese locale. From the same terminal emulation window, you
must also use the command line to start the Simplified Chinese input method
server and then other applications in which you want to use Simplified
Chinese.
You can start the input server on your local workstation by using the
following command:
% /usr/bin/X11/dxhanziim &
If you want to start the input server on a remote system, log on the remote
system, and enter the following commands. Substitute the name of your local
system for <display_name> in the first command.
% setenv DISPLAY <display_name>:0
% /usr/bin/X11/dxhanziim &
After the input server is started, any Motif applications that have been
internationalized to support Simplified Chinese can communicate with the
server to obtain input method services. However, remember that these
applications must be started after the server is started.
RESTRICTIONS
This input server uses X11R6. It can connect to input-method clients
running X11R4, X11R5, or X11R6 under the same locale. However, support for
multiple monitors (multi-head systems) is available only to clients also
running X11R6. Support for multiple monitors is not available to input-
method clients using X11R5 or X11R4.
If you are using a PC-style keyboard, the input server may not recognize
the Backspace key as the way to delete the previous character in the input
method preediting area. In this case, you must use the Delete key to delete
the character.
The default Alt-Space key sequence for activating and deactivating the
input method may not work under CDE. In this case, invoke the dialog box
for Input Method Customization and change the key sequence for Start Input
Method and End Input Method to be something other than Alt-Space. For
example, you could change the sequence to be Ctrl-Space.
