We are experimenting some problems with displaying and inputting Chinese characters in WINE (January 2002 or newer). For example, most Chinese characters show up as squares,
Probably some font misconfiguration problem. Apparently displaying of Chinese characters should work since output of Japanese characters admittedly works.
and it seems that WINE doesn't accept Chinese input via XCIN (an input method server using the XIM protocol). Did we misconfigured something? Or is this a known problem in WINE? Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks!
I'm afraid that correct input of Chinese and any multibyte characters will require almost complete rewrite of the Wine keyboard code using X Input Method/Input Context. Simultaneously it will solve the problem with dead keys.
Unfortunately nobody worked on that problems yet. Do you want to try?
