To Yen-Ju Chen:
I presume you are the author of
Documentation/Developer/Gui/Reference/LanguageSetup.html.
If so, please take the following into consideration when you revise or
update it:
I attach a quick patch for LanguageSetup.gsdoc in response to your
suggestion.
Since I'm not familiar with gsdoc tag, some tags may need to be corrected.
2. Put the document in Documentation/User instead of
Documentation/Developer so that the
user can find it naturally. I think the contents itself is irrelevant
to development.
Also, you can't expect all the users identify themselves as developer.
This is not under my control. :)
5. Delete the explanation for XIM. If an input method in use doesn't work,
it's a bug
of the input method, not that of GNUstep. The user never fix it by
tweaking
XIMInputServer.m.
There are two possibility that XIM doesn't work.
One is that XIM is broken. Another is that
GNUstep doesn't know the encoding of XIM.
In the later case, whatever you type will be appended with
the encoding string by the Xwindow.
That's the way how XIM server and client know the encoding of each other.
I add some more text to make it clear.
Last, but not least, I think people in other nations would appreciate your
document if you
could rewrite it in a manner that the explanations are not much biased in
favor of your own
language (although they provides a good example of usage).
The document is written by the suggestion of Adam Fedor.
By the time, the support for i18n just starts to work.
Since I have no idea whether it works for other non-western languages,
I wrote it as my personal experience rather than an official document.
That's why I always use Traditional Chinese (Big5 encoding) as example
because that's the one I know to work.
Since you are also using non-western language,
you can offer some more patches to make this document more general
by combining this document (my experience) and yours.
The part of Xlib probably is out of date. I never touch Xlib backend since
then
