Bug with freewnn Japanese input method & XEmacs 21.5.33

Hi, I'm turning to XEmacs list for help, a SUSE user has reported this problem and I can perfectly reproduce it, but I'm not 100% sure where the error is. the wnn (input method library) returns an error, but I think Emacs should handle that better than crashing. Steps to reproduce (at least on an openSUSE system): Install "fwnn"/freewnn, which contains a "jserver" app Start jserver Start xemacs C-x RET C-\ japanese-egg-wnn Type hoshi SPC expected that this turns the Japanese characters |ほし| which show up, into a Chinese character like 星 Here is the bug report: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=830221 I attach the Backtrace and Stacktrace of the original reporter here for convenience. The Input method returns an error about a file that does not exist. If creating the file manually, XEmacs does no langer crash (good!) but the input method does not work either. Instead, it just shows 98:BAD ERRORNO!!! I suppose this input method is just broken beyond repair? Does it work for anyone else, including the step that turns Japanese syllable letters into Chinese characters? Take care, Nei _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
