Apparently, these from m17n are not being used by most simplified chinese users. if user use scim, then scim-pinyin would be preferred, for ibus, ibus-pinyin, and sunpinyin is popular as well. Thats why I said these pinyin is nearly useless. > > Where are the "3-4 kinds" of pinyin that you referred to? And what is > wrong with the ones in m17n-db and m17n-contrib? for the exact number, I might recalled it in errors. the problem is ibus has supported m17n, which can let ibus users benefit from m17n.
