Some strange problem with scim in terminal

I can input fine in gtk apps, but not in terminal. I tried mlterm and urvxt which both display chinese, japanese and korean fine (utf8). I cant invoke scim with ctrl+space however.

Someone suggested "mlterm -A &", that doesnt work.

"urxvt -h" gives me in options:

rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v7.7 - released: 2006-02-21
options: perl,xft,styles,combining,blink,iso14755,encodings=eu+vn+jp+jp-ext+kr+zh+zh-ext,fade,XPM,transparent,tint,XIM,frills,selectionscrolling,wheel,slipwheel,cursorBlink,pointerBlank,scrollbars=plain+rxvt+NeXT+xterm

In .xinitrc I have:

export XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
export GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
export QT_IM_MODULE="scim"
scim -d
exec enlightenment_start

Can't seem to figure it out :evil:

Re: Some strange problem with scim in terminal

Can it be some problem with my locale? I use nn_NO.utf8.

Re: Some strange problem with scim in terminal

Did you uncommented your locale in /etc/locale.gen and ran locale-gen as root afterwards?

Changed my locale to en_US and it works. Problem solved

Re: Some strange problem with scim in terminal

I looked some more and found that in order to both screen and scim work as they should I need in .bashrc:

LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
LANG="nn_NO.UTF-8"

And in rc.conf:

LOCALE="nn_NO"

This means its a bug with the nn_NO.UTF-8 and scim, no ?

Re: Some strange problem with scim in terminal

LC_ALL overrides everything. I'll file a bug report for locale @ scim's.

Re: Some strange problem with scim in terminal

Hi, this is my .xinitrc setting, and i am using gnome-terminal-2.14.2

# export LANG="ko_KR.UTF-8"
# export LC_ALL="ko_KR.UTF-8"
# export XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
# export GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
# export G_BROKEN_FILENAMES=0
# export GDK_USE_XFT=1
# scim -d

PS: i am using "SHIFT"+"SPACE" (initially) and "Hangul/English"(laterly) key.
