This package scim-pinyin is a SCIM module for Pinyin input method.  Please
see /usr/share/doc/scim/README.Debian.gz for usage of scim.

SCIM uses TrueType fonts for display.  Since scim-pinyin supports both
simplified and traditional Chinese, you need to install fonts for these
languages.  The Arphic fonts recommended by scim-pinyin package should work
fine.

Tips
----

In order to use ``Pinyin with tone'', you need to set ``use tone'' in scim-setup
(right click scim notification icon, click the wrench icon on scim panel, or
launch from system menu).  Then you can use Shift-n (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) to
indicate the tone of the pinyin.

Bugs
----

Since the skim-scim-pinyin package was not created for squeeze, you can not
configure scim-pinyin from skim under KDE.  See http://bugs.debian.org/388749 .
