bilingual, multilingual et al.

[Ed Montgomery]

Speaking English as a native, French as second,
Japanese as third, and a (light) smattering of others,
I can also provide some feedback.  At the moment, I
routinely make bilingual English/Japanese documents
(although occasionally, to prevent problems with
fonts, etc., I have resorted to producing them as jpeg
images!!?? (mainly for online webpages, hence visible
and readable with any browser capable of displaying
images, regardless of fonts, etc....:-))  French
accents can be a hassle when using an English only
keyboard, etc.

Currently using Ubuntu and SCIM, etc. most of the
time, and using OpenOffice to produce the French XO
manual.

And mind you, I am using a typical U.S.
laptop/computer keyboard, and do not have an XO and/or
XO keyboard for hacking purposes...:-)  Hence, I
currently use my standard keyboard with an XO livecd
emulation.  Haven't played around with keyboard stuff
to date.
