Intro, and question to 'msevior' regarding i-bus direct input

Hi, I am new to the list. This is my first message. First off, a warm
thanks to maintainers of Abiword. I have discovered Abiword through
Gnumeric (My distribution--Fedora 13 LXDE in English--features these two
software as the default office applications). As much as I come to like
Gnumeric, I begin to have a similar feeling for Abiword.

There is a dark note to this nice picture. I am an expatriate living in
Japan and Abiword does not handle i-bus input (Asian languages)
correctly.

I have reported the bug on my distribution bug tracking website:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=648773

I got lucky to have some feedback. Followed some comments on the
abiword bug tracker:

http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10756

This is the excerpt of my conversation on the #abiword channel with
jean:

I have the single perspective (and the obvious lack of knowledge) of an
end-user. I call the list for some information, and eventually some
additional guidance or advice.

Thank you,
nomnex
