Hi Joop,

Joop Beris さんは書きました:

The thing that does bother her, is the IME. She likes the way the MS-IME
works, which makes it easy to switch between kanji, hiragana, katakana and
back, all while typing.

Using scim(skim)-anthy, you can easily switch between kanji, hiragana,
katakana and so on with some function keys while typing.

Here are examples:

[F6] まつもと <= HIRAGANA
[F7] マツモト <= KATAKANA
[F8] ﾏﾂﾓﾄ <= HANKAKU-KATAKANA
[F9] ｍａｔｓｕｍｏｔｏ <= ZENKAKU-ALPHABET
[F10] matsumoto <= HANKAKU-ALPHABET

Is this helpful to your wife ?

And I advise you to add M17N repository to your install source, so that
you can get the latest packages for inputting Japanese.
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/M17N/

To add the repository, just execute these commands as root:
# zyper ar -r
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/M17N/openSUSE_11.0/M17N.repo
(one line)
# zypper ref
# zypper up -t package
# zypper dup

And one more thing, if your wife has Japanese related troubles in using
openSUSE, subscribe to opensuse-ja mailing list, in which she can ask
questions in Japanese.
See http://ja.opensuse.org/Communicate
We will welcome her. :-)
