[1m1.Introduction[m
This is an overdue document for using Chinese in Linux. I have been
expecting this HOWTO for a long time. Obviously there is no such HOWTO
available on Internet, I decided to write one by myself.It is
nothing else but an attempt to make life a little bit easer.Please
send your comments and suggestions to [email protected] is
no copyright issue associated with this document. You may do whatever
you want with this HOWTO except for suing me for the damage caused by
this document or bringing me into a lawsuit.
You can get most of the Chinese Software at:
<http://cnapps.ifcss.org> and
<ftp://linux.csie.nctu.edu.tw:/pub/linux>
[1m2.The Chinese X Windows[m
The X Window system is a large and powerful graphics environment for
UNIX. XFree86 is a free port of the MIT X Window System (X11R6). The
Chinese X Windows is a patch to the XFree86 for displaying chinese
charactors in X Window environment. The author is Shin-Ray Lee
([email protected]). Current version of CXwin only supports BIG5
coding. It is available for both XFree86 3.1 and XFree86 3.2 .CXwin
gives your Chinese popup menu, Chinese window title for various window
managers and also can display Chinese characters in some applications.
[1m2.1.Where to get it[m
[1m2.1.1.CXwin 3.1[m
The XFree86 3.1 version of Chinese X Windows can be found at the major
chinese software ftp site
ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/linux/X11R6/CXwin/elf or its mirror sites.
You only need to get one X server for yourself.In my case, I need
XF86_SVGA.gz. But XF86_VGA16.gz should work for most of the graphics
cards.
[1m2.1.2.CXwin 3.2[m
As I know, the latest version for CXwin is XFree86 3.2 .You can
fetch the linux ELF format of CXwin 3.2 at
linux.csie.nctu.edu.tw:/pub/linux/CXwin/elf
[1m2.1.3.Patches[m
If you have the source for XFree86, you can get patch at the same
place and compile the binary file by yourself.
[1m2.2.How to install it[m
Uncompress the gzipped file, in my case it is /tmp/XF86_SVGA.gz
# gzip -d XF86_SVGA.gz
Become superuser (root) and make a backup copy of your orignal X
server
# cd /usr/X11R6/bin
# mv XF86_SVGA XF86_SVGA_BACKUP
Move the CXwin to its place
# mv /tmp/XF86_SVGA /usr/X11R6/bin
# chown root.bin XF86_SVGA
# chmod 4755 XF86_SVGA
CXwin also _n_e_e_d_s _f_o_u_r _B_I_G_5 _f_o_n_t_s to work properly, namely taipei15,
taipei16, taipeik20 andtaipeik24. Please refer to ``Section ``''''
for how to intall Chinese fonts.
CXwin 3.1 is buggy and unstable. It is recommended that you upgrade to
XFree86 3.2 and use CXwin 3.2. CXwin is in alpha state, you may use it
at your own risk. But I have been using it for over three months, it
works just great. At<http://turb10.seas.ucla.edu/ hongz>, you will
find some nice screenshots of my desktop.
[1m3.The CXterm and Hztty[m
CXterm is a terminal simulator just like xterm but with the ability of
displaying and inputting chinese charactors. It supports GB, BIG5
coding. Along with hztty, you can also read HZ encoded text which is
commonly used in chinese newsgroup. You may read CXTERM.FAQ
(cs.purdue.edu:ftp/pub/ygz) for installation details.Yongguang Zhang
is the author of this great software.
[1m3.1.Getting the cxterm package and hztty[m
cxterm5.0.p3.tar.gz is the latest version of cxterm (version 5.0).
This single package includes cxterm and chinese fonts. It is very easy
to install the cxterm. You can get cxterm and hztty from
cxterm5.0.p3.tar.gz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/x-win/cxterm
hztty-2.0.tar.gz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/convert
[1m3.2.Installing cxterm[m
Unpacking the cxterm package
# tar -xvzf cxterm5.0.p3.tar.gz
Which will creat a new directory cxterm-5.0
# cd cxterm-5.0
# ./config.sh
If you want to install cxterm for all the users on the system, you
need to become root before you run the command ``./config.sh''. Now
you can follow the instruction to compile and to install cxterm.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--- BASIC MENU ---
0. Read COPYRIGHT Notice
1. Compile, Install, and Configure "CXTERM 5.0" in One Step
--- OPTION MENU ---
2. Compile cxterm (not to install)
3. Install cxterm (after successful compilation in 2)
4. Install additional Chinese font(s) for your X window
5. Configure your account for using cxterm (after installation in 3)
x. Exit
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please choose (0/1/2/3/4/5/x) :
Choose option 1 if you want the installation script to do everything
for you. At the middle, you will be prompt to enter the installing
directory.In my case, I installed cxterm in /usr/local/chinese.
There are also two fonts come with the cxterm package, choose option 1
and 3 will install the fonts automatically. You can also install extra
fonts using option 4. After installing cxterm, make sure the
executables cxterm and CXterm in your search path.For C shell and
Tcsh
# set path (/usr/local/chinese/bin $path)
For sh and bash
# setenv PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/chinese/bin ; export PATH
CXterm is a shell script for loading X window resources and bringing
up the cxterm.For using cxterm in GB mode, try this
# CXterm -gb
Or in BIG5 mode
# CXterm -big5
[1m3.3.Installing hztty[m
Hztty translates Chinese between different encoding.Unpacking
hztty-2.0.tar.gz
# tar -xvzf hztty-2.0.tar.gz
# cd hztty-2.0
# make linux
After compiling, move the executable hztty to your bin directory and
the man page to your man directory.
# mv hztty /usr/local/bin
# chmod 555 /usr/local/bin/hztty
# cp hztty.1 /usr/local/man/man1
# chmod 444 /usr/local/man/man1/hztty.1
Read the hztty man page for how to use hztty.
[1m3.4.Color patch for cxterm[m
There are also one patch file cxterm-5.0.p3-color.patch.gz locate in
the same directory as cxterm5.0.p3.tar.gz at
ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/x-win/cxterm. You can patch the cxterm
source to get ANSI color for cxterm. Here suppose you have the cxterm
source tree in /tmp/cxterm-5.0
# cp cxterm-5.0.p3-color.patch.gz /tmp
# gzip -d cxterm-5.0.p3-color.patch.gz
# patch < cxterm-5.0.p3-color.patch
# cd cxterm-5.0
# ./config.sh
The color-cxterm is kind of cool. But There is one annoying thing when
I try to input Chinese in color-cxterm: the input area at the low bot-
tom of cxterm does not redraw properly, I have to press ``Ctrl-L'' to
redraw the whole screen. This maybe just a termcap problem. Hope some-
one will give me a hint.
[1m3.5.Trouble shooting[m
Sometimes CutPaste may not working in cxterm shell prompt. Tcsh
strips the 8th bit. You need to type ``setenv LANG'' to correct this.
Also try ``stty pass8''.
[1m4.Chinese Ediors[m
[1m4.1.Celvis and CVim -clones of vi/ex[m
C-Elvis is a clone of vi/ex, the standard UNIX editor. C-Elvis
supports editing of Chinese text, English text, and the mixture of
both. C-Elvis supports nearly all the vi/ex commands, in both visual
mode and ex (colon) mode, for both Chinese and English characters. You
can use C-Elvis for both GB2312-80 standard and Big5 encoding Chinese
text. You need to use it in a Chinese terminal such as cxterm to
input/output Chinese character.
[1m4.1.1.Getting the celvis[m
The ftp site for celvis is
celvis-1.3.tar.gz ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/editor
[1m4.1.2.Installing celvis[m
# tar -xvzf celvis-1.3.tar.gz
# cd celvis
You need to edit tmp.c, delete line 93-95
______________________________________________________________________
#if OS9
if we don't have write permission...
#endif
______________________________________________________________________
Then you can compile it by
# cp Makefile.s5 Makefile
# make install
Because the Makefile is not for Linux, you may get a lot of warning
messages. But you can ignore all of them. The celvis will installed in
in /usr/local/bin.
[1m4.1.3.Cvim[m
CVim is a patch to add Chinese support for vim-4.2.CVim includes
some vi's features which are not supported by celvis-1.3, such as line
number, line wrap, and large file editing.you can get
vim-4.2-Chinese-patch and vim-4.2.tar.gz at
ftp.csie.nctu.edu.tw:/pub/Unix/Chinese/cvim
# tar -xvzf vim-4.2.tar.gz
# cd vim-4.2/src
# patch < ../../vim-4.2-Chinese-patch
The file ``vim-4.2/src/feature.h'' can be edited to match your prefer-
ences. Compiling is simple, just do
# make
# make install
[1m4.2.Cjoe - Joe's Own Chinese Editor[m
JOE is a professional freeware ASCII text screen editor for UNIX.JOE
has the feel of most IBM PC text editors. Although I am not using it
myself, it is definitly a great editor.
[1m4.2.1.Getting cjoe[m
You can find cjoe-2.8.tgz at the same place as celvis-1.3.tar.gz
cjoe-2.8.tgz ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/editor
[1m4.2.2.Compiling and Installing cjoe[m
Edit the Makefile file if you want to change the locations for
binaries, keymap initialization files and man page. Otherwise, just do
the following
# make
# make install
[1m4.3.Cemacs and CChelp For Emacs[m
Cemacs is a method of using GNU Emacs to display and edit Chinese
files.To use Cemacs, it is necessary to run Emacs on a Chinese
terminal or under a Chinese terminal emulator program such as cxterm.
CCHELP is a system to obtain instant helpful information on Chinese
characters. Once CCHELP is installed, you can click the mouse on any
Chinese character and a help messag will appear giving the character
itself, its PinYin pronunciation, and an indication of its English
meaning. Both GB- and Big5-coded Chinese are supported.
[1m4.3.1.Getting Cemacs and Chelp[m
Both cemacs and cchelp can be fetched at
ftp.math.psu.edu:/pub/simpson/chinese
[1m4.3.2.Installing[m
Follow the README files for cemacs and cchelp.
[1m4.4.Mule and Xemacs 20.0[m
[1m4.4.1.Getting Mule-2.3 and the Patch for Linux[m
mule-2.3.tar.gz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/mule/editor
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/distribution/je/sources/mule
mule-2.3+lx.diff.gz sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/distribution/je/sources/mule
[1m4.4.2.Coompilng and Installing[m
Unpack the package and apply the patch
# tar -xvzf mule-2.3.tar.gz
# patch < mule-2.3+lx.diff
# cd mule-2.3/
# ./configure "i386-*-linux" --with-x11 --with-x-toolkit --with-gcc
If you want to customize your mule, read the file ``INSTALL'' and try
``./configure --help''. After the configuration, you need to modify
the file ``src/Makefile'' a little bit, change ``-lcurses'' to
``-lncurses''. Now
# make
# make install
The default installation directory is /usr/local.
[1m4.4.3.Use Chinese in Mule-2.3[m
If you have fonts intalled, you can use mule for input/output Chinese.
Most of the Chinese fonts are 16 pts or 24 pts, so try
# mule -fn 8x16 &
Or
# mule -fn 12x24 &
In mule type M-x load-library RETURN chinese RETURN .The command
``Ctrl-]'' toggles input methods.
[1m4.4.4.Xemacs 20.0[m
Haven't try yet.
[1m5.Installing Chinese fonts[m
[1m5.1.Installing X window fonts[m
[1m5.1.1.Where to get GB and BIG5 fonts[m
Most likely you may already have some Chinese fonts sitting in your
system. You can find GB fonts by
# xlsfonts | grep gb
-cclib-song-medium-r-normal--0-0-72-72-c-0-gb2312.1980-1
-cclib-song-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-gb2312.1980-1
-isas-fangsong ti-medium-r-normal--0-0-72-72-c-0-gb2312.1980-0
-isas-fangsong ti-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-gb2312.1980-0
-isas-song ti-medium-r-normal--0-0-72-72-c-0-gb2312.1980-0
-isas-song ti-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-gb2312.1980-0
-isas-song ti-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-240-gb2312.1980-0
hanzigb13fs
hanzigb13st
hanzigb16fs
hanzigb16st
hanzigb24st
The last five fonts in this case are just the aliases of the first
five fonts. Or to find BIG5 fonts
# xlsfonts | grep big5
-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-0-0-75-75-c-0-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-20-200-75-75-c-200-big5.eten.3.10-1

-uw-songti-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1
If you don't have any Chinese fonts installed or just want more fonts,
you may look into ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/fonts/ where gb/bdf/ is
for GB fonts, big5/bdf is for BIG5 fonts.
[1m5.1.2.Installing X fonts[m
Suppose you get BIG5 font eb5-24k2.bdf.gz and GB font gb24st.bdf.gz.
To build the fonts into .pcf format
# gzip -cd eb5-24k2.bdf.gz | bdftopcf -t > eb5-24k2.pcf
# gzip -cd gb24st.bdf.gz | bdftopcf -t > gb24st.pcf
# compress *.pcf
Install the fonts into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
# mv *.pcf.Z /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/
# cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
# mkfontdir .
After installing the fonts, looking into the file fonts.dir, which now
contains two lines
eb5-24k2.pcf.Z -kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1
gb24st.pcf.Z -isas-song ti-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-240-gb2312.1980-0
You may need to make aliases for these fonts, which will save you a
lot of typing when bringing up Chinese software, add two lines to the
file fonts.alias
gb24st "-isas-song ti-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-240-gb2312.1980-0"
taipeik24 "-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1"
Now inform your X window system server by
# xset fp rehash
If everything goes well, you can use your new fonts now
# cxterm -GB -fn 12x24 -fh gb24st &
[1m5.2. HBF fonts[m
HBF fonts contain header files and bitmap font files. You need to get
both header file and font files to install one HBF font. HBF fonts are
in ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/fonts .
Suppose you want to use font ccfs24.hbf, a GB, FangSong, Jianti font,
you should get three files ccfs24.hbf, cclib.n24 and ccsys.24. The
file 00index.txt in the ifcss fonts directory gives you filenames of
each HBF font.
[1m6.Printing Utilities[m
[1m6.1.CNPRINT[m
Cnprint is an utility to print Chinese text or convert Chinese text to
PostScript. It works just like a print command and support GB, HZ and
BIG5 formats.
[1m6.1.1.Where is cnprint[m
cnprint260.tar.gz can be found at
ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/print
[1m6.1.2.Install cnprint[m
The package cnprint260.tar.gz contains only four files
# ls
cnprint.1 cnprint.c cnprint.cmd cnprint.help
You can compile it by
# gcc cnprint.c -o cnprint
# mv cnprint /usr/local/bin
# mv cnprint.1 /usr/local/man/man1
For cnprint to work properly, you need to specify the full path for
the fonts files (HBF fonts). In csh or tcsh
# setenv HBFPATH "/usr/local/chinese/HBF/"
In sh or Bash
# set HBFPATH="/usr/local/chinese/HBF/"; export HBFPATH
The file cnprint.cmd contains the default settings for cnprint. It
should be put in BFPATH
# cp cnprint.cmd $HBFPATH
If you convert Chinese text file to PostScript use the command
``cnprint -w FILENAME''
[1m6.2.GB2PS[m
GB2PS is another printing utility support GB and HZ encoding. It comes
with a cover page for printing HXWZ.
[1m6.2.1.Where to find GB2PS[m
Package:
gb2ps.2.02.tar.gz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/print
fonts:
csong24.ccf ckai24.ccf ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/fonts/gb/misc
cfang24.ccf chei24.ccf
Put fonts in some place. Mine is in /usr/local/chinese/CFONT
[1m6.2.2.Installing GB2PS[m
Before you compile gb2ps, you need to change two settings in the
Makefile, the fonts directory and cover page location
CFONT=/usr/local/chinese/CFONT/
COVERPAGE=/usr/local/chinese/lib/cover.ps
Then just type
# make
# cp gb2ps /usr/local/bin
[1m6.3.DTop[m
Don't know much about it
[1m7.Displaying Chinese in Netscape[m
There are many web pages on the Internet devoting to this topic.
Netscape (better use version 2.1 and up) supports both GB and BIG5.
Hare are three steps to view Chinese(BIG5) in Netscape
1. Setup X fonts as in ``Section ``''''
2. Bring up netscape and choose menu Options/Document
Encoding/Tranditional Chinese (Big5)
3. In menu Options/General Preferences/fonts choose the font you want
to use.
But you may wonder why you can only use Fixed(HKU) Size 16.0.It
turns out you need to edit the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-
defaults/Netscape to get more fonts.Suppose you have the
following BIG5 fonts
# xlsfonts | grep big5
-hku-fixed-medium-r-normal--0-0-72-72-c-0-big5.hku-0
-hku-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-160-big5.hku-0
-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-0-0-75-75-c-0-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-20-200-75-75-c-200-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-kai-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-0-0-75-75-c-0-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-15-150-75-75-c-160-big5.eten.3.10-1
-kc-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-0-0-75-75-c-0-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-16-160-75-75-c-160-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-ming-medium-r-normal-fantizi-20-200-75-75-c-200-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-songti-medium-r-normal-fantizi-0-0-75-75-c-0-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-songti-medium-r-normal-fantizi-20-200-75-75-c-200-big5.eten.3.10-1
-uw-songti-medium-r-normal-fantizi-24-240-75-75-c-240-big5.eten.3.10-1
Add this line to your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Netscape
*documentFonts.charset*big5.eten.3.10-1: x-x-big5
Now netscape can use all of them.
[1m8.Chinese Tex[m
Don't know much about these packages
[1m8.1.CJK[m
[1m8.2.Poor Man's Tex[m
[1m8.3.ChTex[m
[1m9.Using Chinese in Console -- Chdrv and WZCE[m
Chdrv is a Chinese Terminal Simulator.It can display Chinese without
X-Windows. It bases on VGALIB, and a VGA or super VGA monitor is
required. It supports BIG5 coding only, but you can view GB files by
using hztty
[1m9.1.Getting chdrv[m
chdrvbin-1.0.7.tar.gz sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/util/nls
ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/linux/tty
chdrvfont.tar.gz (HBF) ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/linux/tty
[1m9.2.Intalling chdrv[m
