Install SCIM - Chinese Input

Finally i have a little bit of free time to do my thing. Although these few days i am using linux but only for my assignment, assembly langguage which i need to simulate the mastermind game. Working on it for several days but still got bugs, sigh....

After passing up the assignment, i going out with my friend to have a nice meal. Then go back home and decided to install chinese input for my Fedora Core 3 casue without chinese input, sometimes i cant even type chinese in forum.

So i will explain about how i install SCIM ( Smart Common Input Method)


Smart Common Input Method is a multilingual input method framework that can be used both through the old X Input Method interface and as a module for GTK+ 2 or Qt

  • Then as usual, type rpm -Uvh scim-1.0.2-1fc3.i386.rpm..after that type the same for another rpm.
  • If you wish to setting your terminal for chinese input. Go to another terminal and execute the following command:

$ export XMODIFIERS=@im=SCIM

There is the SCIM... have fun (this is more easy to install compare to last time which i need to edit the code so that it become my default input method)
