HOWTO japanese
Japanese input with canna and kinput2 ===================================== Canna - a conversion engine, like FreeWnn but it works on my machine (which is alpha) It does not need X server to run. Kinput2 - a front-end. This will display a nice input window. Yudit supports kinut2 protocol, _JAPANESE_CONVERSION. This needs X server to run. Installation ============ http://www.yudit.org/download/Japanese Short install guide. *.alpha.rpm should be substituted with file names reported by the rpm --rebuild command. rpm --rebuild Canna-3.5b2-51.src.rpm rpm --i Canna-3.5b2-51.alpha.rpm rpm -iU Canna-devel-3.5b2-51.alpha.rpm rpm -iU Canna-libs-3.5b2-51.alpha.rpm rpm --rebuild kinput2-v3-14.src.rpm rpm -i kinput2-canna-wnn6-v3-14.alpha.rpm Start ===== probably in /etc/rc.d. Please use chkconfig --add canna for automatic start. Seee CHKCONFIG(8) for more info. manually: /etc/rc.d/init.d/canna start Make this start after you run X: kinput2 -canna & Usage ===== Kinput2 window should appear after you switch input to kinput2 in yudit. Update 2002-04-08 ================== I have added mappings between national standard JIS X 0213 on a best effort basis. For Yudit National standards are preferred to Unicode when selecting a fonts - this is the only way to select a particular glyph variant from unified CJK character. Font support is the only reason why I still keep these maps - text conversion is just a bonus. X11 bitmap fonts with -jisx0213*-1 -jisx0213*-2 are automatically recognized. They can be found at many places, for instance: http://www.mars.sphere.ne.jp/imamura/jisx0213.html For Shift_JISX0213 encoded True Type fonts please use shift-jis-3 converter, like this: yudit.font.JIS2000=wlmaru2000p.ttf:shift-jis-3 lmaru2000p.ttf can be found in: http://members11.tsukaeru.net/rare/font/ extendedWatanabeMincho3.ttf can be found in: http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~sd5a-ucd/freefonts/extended-watanabe-mincho/index.html.ja.sjis New bonus text converters that can handle text with JISX0213 iso-2022-jp-3 euc-jp-3 - official name should be EUC-JISX0213 shift-jis-3 - official name should be Shift_JISX0213 Gaspar Sinai gaspar (at) yudit.org 2006-06-21
