Re: Japanese input (CJK) and proper fonts on the N900

(Cross-posting for other suffering MSCIM users)

I have just created a status menu switcher applet, which allows on-the-fly enabling/disabling of MSCIM (no rebooting).

This will save your battery life greatly, and also allows you to use the onscreen keyboard and symbol menu again!

It still has a few rough edges, but will probably be helpful to most people not requiring MSCIM to be active constantly.

Read this thread carefully, and then download the package if you wish to try it.

All usual warnings apply!! I will not be responsible if your device requires reflashing afterwards, etc.

And there is anthy, a Jap input method.

By any chance does anyone know if Ankiqt900 can render Chinese characters properly if MSCIM is installed?

Does MSCIM include Chinese characters fonts too?
