There are probably other methods, some of which may be easier / simpler, but what I'd do is build something around SCIM - probably starting with the scim-pinyin package. I could (potentially) give you detailed step-by-step for setting it up in my environment, but since your environment is not mine (for starters, I use E16 as a window manager, and no desktop environment at all), my directions would not reliably be correct for you. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
