2012-05-28 Thread Adrian
That isn't it I'm afraid. I just hacked that get_chinese_mode function
to return 1 all the time but still I ony get simplified. I already had
the aforementioned fix on my box cos I updated it today. My box
basically has to speak English cos I am English, but I live here and
need to type chinese sometimes. I can see traditional characters in
firefox and in a shell. Maybe the clue is in here somewhere:

2012-03-30 Thread sonya huang
I filed a bug upstream over a year ago about this issue at ibus' Google
Code project page: http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1188

Personally I think a better solution is to separate traditional and
simplified cangjie into two input methods called cangjie-traditional and
cangjie-simplified. This is how Mac OS X treats them and it is very
straightforward. If I have time I will fork the project on github, but
not if someone here gets to it first.

@seb128

Sorry for the wrong order of the commits. There are should be three commits 
which I corrected in the bug description.
For your convenience you can refer to the attached patch, which composes of the 
three commits.

** Description changed:

  BACKGROUND
  en_HK is popular among Hong Kong GNU/Linux users. However, according to 
current practice of IBUS, Simplified Chinese mode would be used by default. 
This is very annoying for these users.
  
  PINYIN CANGJIE DIFFERENCE
  Pinyin for Simplified and Traditional Chinese characters are the same. If a 
Traditional Chinese user meets Simplified Chinese mode, she can still express 
her meaning in most cases. However, Simplified and Traditional Chinese 
characters generally do not have same Cangjie code. A Traditional Chinese user 
would meet a very hard time in Simplified Chinese mode because she cannot get 
expected character by typing her familiar Cangjie code.
  BTW, Cangjie and related Quick is still very popular in Hong Kong.

2012-03-10 Thread Anthony Wong
Hey wanleung, to the problem you outlined in #13, which ibus will filter
out Simplified Chinese, we need to talk to upstream developers to let
him understand the problem as it is likely a design flaw in ibus-table,
and upstream is where the problem should be fixed once and for all.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users

2012-03-10 Thread wanleung
Yes, it is about the design problem of the ibus-table.

As inside the table.py around line 126, there is a comment of the return value 
of the filter
# self._chinese_mode: the candidate filter mode,
#   0 is simplify Chinese
#   1 is traditional Chinese
#   2 is Big charset mode, but simplify Chinese first
#   3 is Big charset mode, but traditional Chinese first
#   4 is Big charset mode.
# we use LC_CTYPE or LANG to determine which one to use

The filter make sense in any kind of PinYin input methods such as 拼音, 注音, 粵拼, 
but it will give out a strange behavior in all kinds of graphological aspect 
input methods such as倉頡, 速成, 大易, 筆順.

It doesn't make sense to use locale to define which filter mode should be use 
in graphological aspect input methods.
The filter mode should be defined by not only locale but also the input method.
As we can see the filter mode actually has Big charset mode which can apply to 
all  graphological aspect input method.

That's why I said the current patch is not a perfect fix of the issues.

2012-03-08 Thread wanleung
Here is my quick fix patch.

But of course, it is not a perfect fix as I told before.

In Cangjie Input Method, although it can now give out Traditional
Chinese result, ibus-tables will filter out Simplified Chinese Result
when user types a Cangjie Code that mapping to Simplified Chinese Table.

But this fix can solve the problem that people in Taiwan are facing, and
99% users usage in Hong Kong.

Thank you for your bug report, I'm not writing chinese and unsure to
understand the issue though:

- why is ibus behaving differently in Fedora than Debian?
- isn't the screenshot in the previous comment showing the keyboard switcher 
rather than ibus (the input method menu)?
- is the issue in ibus-table?
- did anyone try those 2 commits? are they enough to fix the issue?

The fix in ibus-table should resolve the issue experienced by peoples type

Which makes Ubuntu works out-of-the-box without applying any workarounds

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users

2012-03-07 Thread wanleung
- why is ibus behaving differently in Fedora than Debian?
No idea.

- isn't the screenshot in the previous comment showing the keyboard
switcher rather than ibus (the input method menu)?

the fedora screenshot is different from the ubuntu one. The second row
of the fedora one shows which mode (Simplified Chinese or Traditional
Chinese) of the output is. The mode is a filter to filter out the words
and only shows the words which are in that mode. The mode choosing row
is not in the ubuntu. This is noting about the input method, it is just
about the output mode.

For example, 戰(Traditional) and 战(Simplified) are the same word in
Chinese, the input method PinYin are using the same code to represent
those words. So, the iBus engine itself has a word filter to filter out
this 2 words, if you are in Simplified mode, it will filter out the
Traditional one and give out simplified. Which the flow is make scene in
PinYin in Mainland China as they use simplified Chinese, but not in HK
and Taiwan.

As en environment on default is at simplified mode because the current
code is only choose to use Traditional Chinese mode when seeing locale
is zh_HK or zh_TW. And as the UI does not have a place to choose which
mode I would like to use, we cannot type Traditional Chinese in en_HK or
zh_TW locale as the ibus-table thinking we are using Simplified Chinese
but actually it is not.

If we use other input method such as Cangjie, although 戰(Traditional)
and 战(Simplified) are the same word in Chinese, they have different
input code, 戰 is rji and 战 is yri. If ibus is at Simplified Chinese
mode, it doesn't give me a word 戰 even if I type a right cangjie code
rji as the Simplified mode will filter out all the Traditional words.

- is the issue in ibus-table?
Yes. the problem is inside engine/table.py

- did anyone try those 2 commits? are they enough to fix the issue?
Yes, I have tried it. they are enough to fix the issue but not the perfect one.


The issues had been there for a few years when iBus come out. 
Most of the people, when they were facing this problem, will change to use scim 
and gcin.
But as scim and gcin are going to remove from the upstream, this problem is now 
coming up again and becoming a big concern.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users

2012-03-06 Thread Roy Chan
I try to provide more information about the bugs and the affect to HK
people. Although most Hong Kong people are Chinese, most of them usually
use English for work as Hong Kong was a colony of UK for over 100 years.
Therefore, a big number Hong Kong people are more familiar with English
interfaces on their computer even that we have locale zh_HK (Chinese
(HK)). However, while using the English interface as default, they would
like to read Chinese document/web page and input Chinese in the English
interface. Such a using habit is common in Windows, Mac and GNU/Linux
environment. And en_HK is the locale that such a kind people usually
use.

For locale zh_HK, ibus-table use Traditional Chinese as the default
Chinese mode. But for non zh locale (e.g. en_HK) , ibus-table will use
Simplified Chinese as the default Chinese mode if the active input
method is Chinese input mode. The Simplified Chinese mode restricted the
input method can only input Simplified Chinese character which make many
HK people confused.

Unfortunately, such a case is worse in both Ubuntu and Debian compared
with Fedora. In Fedora 16,  user click on the ibus icon on the indicator
bar to show the current Chinese mode and switch the Chinese mode as well
as switching the Input Method. In Ubuntu and Debian, clicking the ibus
icon on indicator bar can only switching the input method. User have no
way to know what Chinese mode they are on in Ubuntu and Debian except
configure the ibus to show the language panel to always use in ibus-
setup. Such an issue mis-leading that many Ubuntu/Debian use think that
ibus cannot input Traditional Chinese.

As Ubuntu 12.04 LTS is a very important release, we wish that such a bug
can be fix in these release to allow HK Ubuntu lover to promote Ubuntu
in HK easier.

The bug affects me for a long time. Also, it is hard to promote Ubuntu
for those newbie like to use English interface but have to input
Traditional Chinese in Hong Kong. As this could not be happened on
Windows and Mac OSX.

If we would like to fix the bug #1, the default environment should be easy for 
newbie to use. 
However, this bug makes those newbie think Ubuntu is hard to use because the 
only way to fix this iBus bug in English environment is to changing the iBus 
code by their own.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users

2012-03-06 Thread Ric
I've previously reported the exactly the same problem at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table-cangjie/+bug/701319
No reply was received there. We could merge that bug report into this one.

As I said there, a workaround is currently offered by Pigeonman's first reply at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table-cangjie/+bug/652841

However, that's a workaround, not a fix. The real problem is that it is
*impossible* to type traditional Chinese in Ubuntu 10+ without tweaking
with config files, not just that it isn't the default.

However, even in the current beta of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, there is no way
for user to aware the Chinese mode exists nor switch it:

I attach a screenshot of iBus in Fedora 16 to show that it allow user to
know which Chinese mode they are in and allow them to switch it:
