Lines: 30 Thanks. I have been playing with some of the clients in X11R4 for using foreign languages. I have the source release. So far I have only played with the Japanese clients, but I am studying Korean and Farci and would like to be able to practice these on the computer. I also have an interest in Chinese (though I know almost nothing). I have the new kterm (4.1.1) which lets me display Chinese, but I don't have any software to input Chinese :-( What clients are available for input, output or display in languages other than English? What fonts are available besides those in X11R4 and the ones recently mentioned in this group? Are there any servers like jserver(Wnn: Japanese Kanakan Henkan Server) for Korean and Chinese? Are there any other languages which require conversion? Are there any bilingual dictionaries? Are there any bilingual transaltion packages? If anybody knows of anything else they think might be along these lines, please mention it. If there is enough interest, I will post a summary. -- -- harkcom@pa.yokogawa.co.jp Yokogawa Electric Corporation, Tokyo, Japan
