> Does setting LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 and LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8 work? Due to bug 27312 unfortunately I can't test if setting LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 and LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.UTF-8 works (i.e. still allows using the X input method). But I would expect it not to work, as LC_ALL is supposed to overwrite LC_CTYPE (see also below). Arguably #10867 should be fixed directly and the X input method should work independently of the setting of LC_CTYPE. > Or should LANG should take precedence over LC_CTYPE perhaps? Using LANG to decide the language of the tutorial should also work. But would changing the precedence order to set current-language-environment based on LANG not interfere with bug #10867? I.e. does emacs directly check LC_CTYPE to decide if it supports using the X input method or does it check current-language-environment (#10867). In the latter case simply changing the precedence order wouldn't fix the problem, as it would still require me to have current-language-environment to be set to Chinese just to input Chinese characters..
