Your post, and also Peter Gordon's, both sound *very* helpful -- much thanks! But I'm afraid you're also both slightly over my head : I don't follow quite what exactly it is that I'm to tell yum to install -- what is the command? Certainly not just "yum install japanese"?? (I do use pirut, gladly; if this is too dumb, I can try its search function. But it's always more convenient to use yum when I can do it.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8; Alpine 0.99999, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2.0.3, Epiphany 2.20, Opera 9.24, Firefox 2.0 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about.
