hi all. i'm also trying to figure out how to get japanese working on my system. the main freewnn site is at:
http://www.freewnn.org/ (in japanese), but they have an english page at: http://web.kyoto-inet.or.jp/people/tomoko-y/biwa/root/wnn_e.html here are some other links that i've collected, but have yet to really go through and try: http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/jpninpt.html http://freekde.org/article.php?sid=5&mode=nested&order=0 http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~wp7s-mrn/slack80.html (japanese; says "slackware, but could apply to any distribution, i think) if one of you has time to try and gets it to work, please let us know! :) hope the above links help... all the best. p.s. i will try to read through the japanese dox. i've lived and worked in japan for the past 6 years at a japanese systems integration firm, and passed level 2 of the jetro business japanese exam. (currently in hometown of philly though). :) At 14:17 01/12/27 -0500, you wrote: >On Thu, 27 Dec 2001 15:01:18 +0900 >Doug Lerner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Is there something analagous to the Japanese Language Toolkit in MacOS > > that I can install so that I can read and write Japanese? > > > > Thanks, > > > > Doug Lerner, Tokyo > > > >yes there is, its called FreeWNN and i think its somewhere in the 2nd or >3rd CD (the japanese locales is in the 3rd CD). how to make it work, i >still do not know. there is no accompanying docu for the rpm and the >website is in japanese. im still trying to figure it out as my nihongo is >not that good ( i just took JLPT level 4 and i dont know if ill pass ;-). >you will also need a terminal that is unicode-aware and the installation >CD has kterm but it sucks. > >there was an article in the mandrakeforum.com related to this but i >havent really read it yet. > >if you have made any success ill be grateful if you could give me some >pointers even if privately. > >domo arigato gozaimasu. > >-- > >"Programming, an artform that fights back." > >=============================== > >Anuerin G.
