-====== Set up SCIM in XFCE======
-===== What is SCIM? =====
-SCIM stands for 'Smart common input method' ([[http://www.scim-im.org]]). The SCIM engine can act as an input method for any language, including complex languages such as Chinese.  It is easy to use SCIM tables to create a custom keyboard.
-===== Why would I wish to use it? =====
-SCIM is a useful alternative to xkb for switching between keyboard layouts. SCIM provides some functions that xkb does not. I personally use it to type ancient Greek, pointed Hebrew, and Chinese.
-===== How to set up SCIM in XFCE =====
-SCIM is no more difficult to setup in XFCE than in Gnome or KDE.  The easiest, user-level way to set up SCIM is to edit the .Xsession file:
-  LANG=en_US.UTF-8
-  export LANG
-  XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"
-  export XMODIFIERS
-  GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
-  export GTK_IM_MODULE
-  scim -d&
-  startxfce4
-Set LANG to your own local language, of course. SCIM should work as long as the locale is UTF-8. After doing this, SCIM will work in XFCE by default.
-Good luck, and have fun.
