Wait a sec, this server is doing kana->kanji conversion, right? I skim read the linux-nihongo doc (I'm quite short on time :( ) and I found out, that jvim should manage without help of any program, it can commu nicate directly with the server. And it works fine: ctrl-space puts me into hiragana mode, but when I press space to do the conversion, it fa ils, writting something on the bottom (hey, did I said I'm _learning_ japanese? I can't quite understand it, but it has negation (-masen) so I think it has problems communicating with the server... why?). I tried to change access rights to the socket in /tmp, but even if I stated rwxr wxrwx it failed again... Two important things: 1/ I'm rather using a console... X11 is a last resort, slow and unfriendly (for me, that is :) Kon + jvim works nice... but the problem is as above. 2/ I _hate_ emacs. Sorry, no bonus, maybe it has some special Japanese features, but I won't use it... :> > Try create another account for learning Japanese, and use user-ja-conf in > user-ja package. user-ja is a configuration tool for Japanese environment, > and it has /usr/share/doc/user-ja/README.e.gz :) I downloaded it, but it asks a bunch of questions... in Japanese.
