1. install korean fonts

# emerge baekmuk-fonts

edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config
put the followings..

FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/baekmuk/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ttf/korean/baekmuk/"

2. install InputMethod. but If you use GNOME2 and GTK+2 & XFT enabled Mozilla, you don't need to do it.

# export XMODIFIERS=@im=Ami

# emerge ami

3. run Ami

# ami

if you use KDE, WindowMaker or BlackBox, etc... try wmami.

if you use GNOME2 and GTK+2/XFT enabled Mozilla you need just set InputMethod as Hangul(KSC5601)
There is the better InputMethod for GTK+2 - imhangul. but not essential.

4. Set mozilla fonts
Edit->Preference->Appearance->fonts
Korean Serif : baekmuk-batang-ksc5601.1987
Korean SanSerif : baekmuk-gulim-ksc5601.1987
Korean Monospace : baekmuk-batang-ksc5601.1987
Korean Others : baekmuk-batang-ksc5601.1987

if Korean webpages are broken try View->CharacterSet->Korean(EUC-kR)

Now you are ready to read/write Korean.

ps. Korean locale : LANG='ko_KR';

PostPosted: Sun Apr 27, 2003 6:55 am    Post subject: add Korea locale to .bash_profile or .bashrc or /etc/profile Reply with quote

edit .bash_profile or .bashrc
add the following

export LANG='ko_KR'

or if you want to use Korean always and for every user in you LinuxBox,
add the sentence to the end of /etc/profile

xterm does not support unicode.

You'd better try hanterm.

# emerge hanterm

Hanterm is a X terminal for Korean. It does not need Ami.
If hanterm doesn't work, check font setting.

Hanterm setup file is /etc/X11/app-defaults/Hanterm

font settings are like

Hanterm*Font: -lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-*-*-*-70-iso8859-1
Hanterm*hangulFont: -*-gulim-medium-r-normal--14-140-75-75-*-140-ksc5601.1987-0

Hanterm*Font is for English, Hanterm*hangulFont is for Korean.
If you've installed baekmuk fonts, hanterm will work fine.

ps. default hanterm does not excute a login shell.

Baekmul font 2.1 has different font path. I guess /usr/share/fonts/ttf/korean/baekmuk-2.1. Check your font path.

set fonts like "englishfont,koreanfont". and turn on 'use x fontset' - (I don't know the sentences in english, because I always see Korean messages)

ex) -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1,-baekmuk-gulim-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-ksc5601.1987-*

[

Try "hanterm -fn english-font -hfn korean-font"
I guess just 'hanterm -hfn -baekmuk-gulim-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-ksc5601.1987-*' will work.

OK, I've tried Ami, imhangul and the ksc-whatever thing, and from what I understand, there's no such thing as Romaji in Korea, right? Meaning if I want to use it I'll have to put little Hangul stickers on my keys?

P.S. I've updated my internationalization howto to include Korean input. I didn't include the part about the baekmuk fonts, though, since Gentoo already seems to have a few Korean fonts, at least after you install X and mozilla and whatever.

So have you emerged the GTK2 input method imhangul?
In that case, just right-click on any text input field and manually change your input method to Hangul.

Then, press shift-space to activate or deactivate it. This is pretty standard for input methods.

Good luck!

Try using GTK_IM_MODULE="imhangul" mozilla

or

export GTK_IM_MODULE="imhangul"
mozilla

Mozilla really needs you to select all that stuff from the command line, and not from the program, I'm afraid.

Also, if you don't have the GTK2 version of mozilla, then you need to use the other input method, ami.
