Hi Joel,

Tks for your advice.

I'm now snswering this email on FC5_64 PC.

I can input Chinese with following input methods on English locale;
CangJie
CangJie3
Wubi
Simplex
Quick
etc.

But some characters seemed missing. I doubt whether I need adding some

Chines fonts?

# yum list installed iiimf-*
# yum list installed iiimf*
# yum list installed iiimf
# rpm -qa | grep iiimf-*
# rpm -qa | grep iiimf*
# rpm -qa | grep iiimf
All no printout

To use Chinese input I must set LC_CTYPE and GTK_IM_MODULE.
Something like this:

LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8 GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim thunderbird

Which file shall I edit instead of exporting it each time before
editing Chinese.  TIA

You've tried .bash_profile ?

# cat ~/.bash_profile
...
....
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
        . ~/.bashrc
fi

# User specific environment and startup programs

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin

export PATH
unset USERNAME
 * end *

That's the file.
