The starting point of this discussion was the inability to use Chinese, Korean, and Japanese IMEs in the same locale. I write documents in all three languages, and I would do it more often if it were actually convenient.


 This is becoming rather frustrating. How many times do I have to write
that it IS possible right now to install all of them and switch
between them in a *single* application (session) running under any
UTF-8 locale of your choice?   Why don't you try installing


I'm sorry I somehow didn't realize (how couldn't I? I don't know...) that
you wrote the above probably because I had written that everything that you need
for CJK input came by default with modern Linux distros, which is not
true, and you don't need HOWTO. Certainly, it's not well known that
it's possible to switch between multiple gtk2 input modules (including
those for CJK) and it'd be nice to have a well-written summary on the
issue with pointers to various gtk2 input modules. It also would be nice
for major Linux distributions to include them.
