--- Comment #11 from Michal Suchanek hramrach@centrum.cz 2008-10-13 08:32:03 --- Thanks for the patch. However, it looks like CJK input in general is not going to work anytime soon.
There are two major problems:
1) there are no Japanese fonts in wine. Once there is a Japanese font the displaying of Japanese applications should JustWork. They should be linked automatically. The same for Chinese or whatever. In Windows font linking is used to add the characters from MS Gothic to the system fonts, Arial, and whatnot.
2) it is impossible to type Japanese in legacy Windows applications (most applications as people are too lazy to update their code to use new runtime) without switching the whole system into an obscure Japanese locale. The same would probably apply to Chinese, etc. According to comment #6 it should work but it does not work for me.
