Above link should provide some ideas about the importance of Asian
languages in terms of number of speakers.
I had some chance to try out the above-mentioned input methods:
- I couldn't get BeCJK to work under 64 bit nightly. It just flashes for a
brief moment on the screen, then disappears. There are no Deskbar entries,
no preferences, nothing. AFAICS not usable at the moment.
- Cana only adds a tray icon, and it just displays "<empty>". No
preferences, no info, nothing. No go as well.
- It's the same for Mozc as well. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, and I
checked both with the "Japanese" keymap under Preferences, but not seem to
be working.
I couldn't find the Korean-only IME, does anyone else know its name? A
basic search only returns BeCJK as an input method, nothing else.
