Hi. I'm trying to set up X so that I can input Japanese characters (kanji, etc.) in applications like Mozilla, without the necessity to have the interface itself in Japanese.
To this end, I used `set-language-env' from the `language-env' package to set up a Japanese environment in .Xresources and .xsession using kinput2 and canna. The result (as expected) was that I could now input kanji with shift+space, but the interface was now in Japanese as well. To get the interface back to English, I then modified .xsession so that LANG is unset after the kinput2 daemon is started. Unfortunately, this also had the effect of disabling Japanese input; shift+space doesn't do anything anymore. Is there a way to get an English interface with the ability to input Japanese characters?
