The Chinese HOWTO Hong Zhang, hongz@seas.ucla.edu v0.1, 2 April 1997 This is the HOWTO document for using Chinese in Linux environment. It describes how to obtain, install, and configure various Chinese soft­ ware. The most up-to-date version of this Chinese HOWTO may be found at turb10.seas.ucla.edu:/pub/ 1. Introduction 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 hongz@seas.ucla.edu. There 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: and 2. The Chinese X Windows 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 (srlee@csie.nctu.edu.tw). 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. 2.1. Where to get it 2.1.1. CXwin 3.1 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. 2.1.2. CXwin 3.2 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 2.1.3. Patches If you have the source for XFree86, you can get patch at the same place and compile the binary file by yourself. 2.2. How to install it 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 needs four BIG5 fonts to work properly, namely taipei15, taipei16, taipeik20 and taipeik24. 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 , you will find some nice screenshots of my desktop. 3. The CXterm and Hztty 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. 3.1. Getting the cxterm package and hztty 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 3.2. Installing cxterm 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 3.3. Installing hztty 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. 3.4. Color patch for cxterm 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. 3.5. Trouble shooting Sometimes Cut Paste 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''. 4. Chinese Editors 4.1. Celvis and CVim - clones of vi/ex 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. 4.1.1. Getting the celvis The ftp site for celvis is celvis-1.3.tar.gz ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/editor 4.1.2. Installing celvis # 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. 4.1.3. Cvim 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 4.2. Cjoe - Joe's Own Chinese Editor 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. 4.2.1. Getting cjoe 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 4.2.2. Compiling and Installing cjoe 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 4.3. Cemacs and CChelp For Emacs 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. 4.3.1. Getting Cemacs and CChelp Both cemacs and cchelp can be fetched at ftp.math.psu.edu:/pub/simpson/chinese 4.3.2. Installing Follow the README files for cemacs and cchelp. 4.4. Mule and Xemacs 20.0 4.4.1. Getting Mule-2.3 and the Patch for Linux 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 4.4.2. Compile and Installing 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. 4.4.3. Use Chinese in Mule-2.3 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. 4.4.4. Xemacs 20.0 Haven't try yet. 5. Installing Chinese fonts 5.1. Installing X window fonts 5.1.1. Where to get GB and BIG5 fonts 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 -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 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. 5.1.2. Installing X fonts 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 & 5.2. HBF fonts 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. 6. Printing Utilities 6.1. CNPRINT 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. 6.1.1. Where is cnprint cnprint260.tar.gz can be found at ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/print 6.1.2. Install cnprint 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'' 6.2. GB2PS GB2PS is another printing utility support GB and HZ encoding. It comes with a cover page for printing HXWZ. 6.2.1. Where to find GB2PS 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 6.2.2. Installing GB2PS 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 6.3. DTop Don't know much about it 7. Displaying Chinese in Netscape 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. 8. Chinese Tex Don't know much about these packages 8.1. CJK 8.2. Poor Man's Tex 8.3. ChTex 9. Using Chinese in Console -- Chdrv and WZCE 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 9.1. Getting chdrv 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 9.2. Installing chdrv Unpack the binary distribution package # tar -xvzf chdrvbin-1.0.7.tar.gz # mv chdrvfont.tar.gz chdrv-1.0.7/ # cd chdrv-1.0.7 Read the install instruction file INSTALL.1.0. Edit the script file installbin. If you are using shadow password for your system, you also need to edit the file chinese.conf, uncomment the line LOGINPROGRAM /bin/telnet and comment out the line LOGINPROGRAM /bin/login Now you are ready to go # ./installbin 9.3. GB Chinese Console - WZCE Wei Zhong Chinese Environment is a software package support Chinese information processing on PC UNIX's VGA console virtual screens. 9.3.1. Where is it wzce_linux_elf_2.21n.tgz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/linux/tty 9.3.2. Installing Read wzce_linux.readme 10. Chinese WordProcessor -- ChinesePower A very user friendly WYSIWYG East Asia Word Processor on X window. Support GB, Big5, JIS and KS encoding mixed input, PS print, and display. It can generate gif file of the document with 7 colors. Cool for for generating Chinese Web Page. ChinesePower uses HBF or TTF fonts. 10.1. Where to get chpower chpower-2.0.tar.gz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/x-win/editor/ 10.2. Installing chpower Chpower requires HBF fonts and also need Motif library to compile. First modify Makefile, then # make will build the binaries for you. Also set some environment variables # setenv HBFPATH /usr/local/chinese/HBF/ # setenv TTFPATH /usr/local/chinese/TTF/ # setenv HZINPUTDIR /usr/local/chinese/dict/ # setenv CHPOWERPATH path_of_chinesepower 11. Wabi 2.2 and Chinese window system I have been using SoftPC on NextStep. I have Chinese Star intalled in SoftPC. It works great. But I have no extra bucks for Wabi 2.2, please let me know if you are using Chinese software in Wabi 2.2 for Linux. 12. Other Cool Stuffs 12.1. Crxvt The xcin.tar.gz package includes a Chinese rxvt. It supports ANSI color and consumes less memory then cxterm. Xcin itself is an input server (Eten Input ?). But I use crxvt only 12.1.1. Getting Crxvt xcin-2.1a.tgz ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/x-win/xcin 12.1.2. Compiling and Installing Here is the procedure to compile crxvt only (xcin may need ETEN system). # tar -xvzf xcin-2.1a.tgz # cd big5-pack/xcin # xmkmf # gcc -I/usr/X11R6/include -O2 -m486 -pipe -DDELETE_K=0 -DAuto_First=1 \ > -c cli_xcin.c -o cli_xcin.o # cd ../crxvt # xmkmf # make # cp crxvt /usr/local/bin 12.2. Ktty Ktty is another Hztty like utility for reading Chinese in kterm or pxvt. You can get ktty1.3.tar.gz from ftp.ifcss.org:/pub/software/unix/convert. This package does not compile on Linux. You need to use the file ``tty.c'' from the hztty-2.0.tar.gz package and also add two lines to the Makefile ______________________________________________________________________ linux: ${MAKE} ${MFLAGS} DEFINES='-DPOSIX -DSYSV -DUSE_SYSV_UTMP' ${PROG} ______________________________________________________________________ Now compile it by # make linux 12.3. TinTin++ TinTin++ is not a Chinese software. It is very useful when you are playing Chinese Mud. TinTin++ can be found at ftp.princeton.edu:/pub/tintin++. Here are three Chinese Mud sites FengYun fengyun.com 5555 Xi You Ji 129.105.79.24 6905 Xia ke Xing 207.76.64.2 5555 13.
