Can scim work with uxterm/urxvt? If so, could somebody help me to make them work together, please? Of course, I have been throught wiki and googling but nothing helps. Kind regards, Trung

I’ve been through this some time ago and nothing seemed to work (urxvt in my case). I haven’t tried newer releases (last scim release was last august). Actually I gave it up as scim had some problems with gtk3 in addition to this one with urxvt. Now I’m working with uim. Pretty straightforward installation and no real difference in input. There is one problem though with transparency (depth 32) in urxvt: you can’t see the characters with on the spot input until you accept them. Anyway, if you’re not too attached to scim this may solve your problem. -- Caio A. Prado URBANA LEGIO OMNIA VINCIT

I've had many problems with SCIM too, such as capturing almost all my input. Using UIM too, works neatly and allows you to do input on terminal window instead of little popup. Seems to freeze urxvt rarely however. 2011/10/6 Caio A. Prado :

I have the following lines in my xinitrc and it works in uxterm. export XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM" export GTK_IM_MODULE="xim" export QT_IM_MODULE="xim" export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" export XIM_PROGRAM="scim -d" scim -d

I don't use scim, but these lines may help: URxvt.inputMethod:scim URxvt.imLocale:zh_CN.UTF-8 These are required when I used fcitx and am using ibus now. (of course replace the `scim' with proper name) -- Carl Lei (XeCycle) Department of Physics, Shanghai Jiao Tong University OpenPGP public key: 7795E591 Fingerprint: 1FB6 7F1F D45D F681 C845 27F7 8D71 8EC4 7795 E591
