has anyone been able to use xcin or chinput to input hong kong characters? i can read them, but i can't input them. launching xcin, i...
Code:

export LC_CTYPE=zh_HK
export XMODIFIERS="@im=xcin"
export XIM=xcin

But xcin returns:
Code:
 
XCIN (Chinese XIM server) version xcin 2.5.2.3.
(module ver: 20000831, syscin ver: 20000210).
(use "-h" option for help)
xcin: locale "zh_HK" encoding "big5-hkscs"
xcin: error: /etc/xcinrc:
        locale section "zh_HK": DEFAULT_IM: value not specified.

Note I can use xcin to type simplified in oo and thunderbird, but not in firebird(!). There is a defined section for the HKSCS characters in /etc/xcinrc. zh_TW, which is not what I want, complains about the font. Not sure what font I _should_ use for this, actually. fcitx does nothing when i start it. chinput segfault (i am runnning gentoo on a PPC)

thank you. --bosu
