Hi all,

I'm setting up an old (very old!) desktop with PClinuxOS to be used for
basic email, surfing, and some word processing.

I wish to add Japanese input capabilities to the computer, so I installed
anthy from the synaptic installer... How do I get this program running?
I have found a webpage outline the keyboard shortcuts once it is running,
but not how to actually get it started.

Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Also, if you have any suggestions for other input programs, or even linux
distributions, I would appreciate it. I tried Berry Linux, but once it
was installed it started acting strange.. plus the documentation is
mostly Japanese, and I'm not fluent enough to follow.

TruboLinux is one of the best options for cjk language users

thanks for the reply - the page makes no note of PClinuxOS, imagine I will
have to tackle installing from source..

I would be willing to try turbolinux - but as I'm obviously just a beginner
linux user I may stick with free ones for now until I get the hang of it.
