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.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users
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. ** Bug watch added: IBus bugs #1188 http://code.google.com/p/ibus/issues/detail?id=1188 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947908 Title: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table/+bug/947908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@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.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users
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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947908 Title: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table/+bug/947908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Here is my quick fix patch. But of course, it is not a perfect fix as I told before.

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users
- 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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947908 Title: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table/+bug/947908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 947908] Re: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users
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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947908 Title: Default Locale-Based Chinese Mode Setting is Inconvenient to Hong Kong Users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-table/+bug/947908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
