[comp.windows.x] kinput.fix.1 is available on expo

ishisone@sran10.sra.co.jp (03/08/90)

Patch 1 of kinput is now available on expo.lcs.mit.edu
in ~ftp/contrib/R4fixes/kinput. The filename is "kinput.fix.1".
You can get it via anonymous ftp.

This patch fixes the following problems:
	o kinput dumps core if the character conversion rule file includes
	  non-existing files.
	o kinput dumps core if you don't specify jserver-hostname.
	o wrong arguments to XQueryFont() in xlocal/xwstr.c:XWSSetGCSet().
	o error occurs when dictionary and its frequency file aren't coherent.
And adds some features:
	o support keyboard group (for bilingual keyboards).
	  but not completed yet.
	o search path of character conversion rule files can be
	  specified by the envrironment variable 'CC_DEF_PATH'.


Unfortunately, even with this patch, there are two problems to get it run
on DEC DS3100.
	o Kinput gets XToolkit Error when conversion window pops up.
	   --> Do not compile KanjiInput.c with '-O'.
	o Under dxwm, kinput's conversion window doesn't pop up.
	   --> Modify 'kinput.c' so that line 171 (where
	       XtNmappedWhenManaged resource is set) is commented out.


If you have any other problems, please let me know.
