Chinese solution for emacs

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
====================================================================================================
    NTEmacs Chineselization
    Version: NTEmacs 21.1
    Environment: cygwin, Windows 2000 SP2
===================================================================================================
    1. Check menu Options->Mule->Set Language Environment->Chinese->Chinese-GB
       Turn on Chinese mode
    2. Click menu Options->Save Options
    3. WuBi input method
       Download WuBi.tar.gz from http:www.linux.org.cn/emacs/WuBi.tar.gz or http:www.17fun.org/emacs/WuBi.tar.gz
       Extract both WuBi.el and WuBi.elc to DRIVE:/.../emacs-21.1/lisp
       Add following into .emacs
             ; Chinese Wubi IME
        (register-input-method  "chinese-wubi" "Chinese-GB" 'quail-use-package "WuBi" "ChIME::YuleWB::" "WuBi")
         If you like to set WuBI as default Chinese IME, just open .emacs and find "chinese-py-punct" change to 
         "chinese-wubi".
    4. Add following line into .emacs for change font menu to Unix style
        ; Set font select style to Unix
        (setq w32-use-w32-font-dialog nil)
    5. Install BDF fonts
       Reference: http:www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq5.html#windows-font
        I. Download BDF fonts of ftp:ftp.gnu.org/gnu/intlfonts/intlfonts-1.2-split/16dots.tar.gz
          Extract 16dots.tar.gz to a directory
            i.e. i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2
       II. Set bdf font directory, add following lines into .emacs
        ; bdf font directory
        (setq bdf-directory-list
                 '("i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Asian" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Chinese" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Chinese.X"
                "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Ethiopic" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/European" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Japanese"
                "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Japanese.X" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Korean.X" "i:/gnu/intlfonts-1.2/Misc/"))
        (setq w32-bdf-filename-alist
                 (w32-find-bdf-fonts bdf-directory-list))
       III. Create fontset by add following lines into .emacs
         (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
         "-*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-fontset-bdf,
         japanese-jisx0208:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1983-*,
         katakana-jisx0201:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0201*-*,
         latin-jisx0201:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0201*-*,
         japanese-jisx0208-1978:-*-*-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-jisx0208.1978-*,
         thai-tis620:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-tis620.2529-1,
         lao:-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-MuleLao-1,
         tibetan-1-column:-TibMdXA-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-80-MuleTibetan-1,
         ethiopic:-Admas-Ethiomx16f-Medium-R-Normal--16-150-100-100-M-160-Ethiopic-Unicode,
         tibetan:-TibMdXA-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-m-160-MuleTibetan-0")    
         IV. Add bdf font to font-encoding-alist
           ;; Need to add some fonts to font-encoding-alist since the bdf fonts
          ;; are type 0 not the default type 1.
           (setq font-encoding-alist
           (append '(("MuleTibetan-0" (tibetan . 0))
                 ("GB2312"        (chinese-gb2312 . 0))
                 ("JISX0208"      (japanese-jisx0208 . 0))
                 ("JISX0212"      (japanese-jisx0212 . 0))
                 ("VISCII"        (vietnamese-viscii-lower . 0))
                 ("KSC5601"       (korean-ksc5601 . 0))
                 ("MuleArabic-0"  (arabic-digit . 0))
                 ("MuleArabic-1"  (arabic-1-column . 0))
                 ("MuleArabic-2"  (arabic-2-column . 0))) font-encoding-alist))
            V. Set DBF font as default
            (set-default-font "fontset-bdf")
 
    6. Bonus option: add following line can change to a good background color, which is my favorite.
        ; Set background color
            (set-background-color "mintcream")

    The Guide for Install ispell for NTEmacs 
    Last Update:  03/21/02
    Version:      NTEmacs 21.1
              ispell 3.2
    Environment:  cygwin, Windows 2000 SP2
====================================================================================================
  Option 1: ispell 3.2
    Reference: http:www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/ntemacs/discuss/ispell31-cygwin
     1. Download ftp:ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Humblet_Pierre_A/V1.1/ispell-3.2.06-cygwin-1.3-bin.tar.gz
     2. Extract buildhash.exe, deformat-c.exe, deformat-sh.exe, icombine.exe, ijoin.exe, ispell.exe, spell.exe,
        munchlist, findaffix, tryaffix to cygwin's /usr/local/bin.
         3. Extract american.hash, british.hash, english.aff and english.hash to /usr/local/lib.
         4. Ignore all the rest.
 
  Option 2: ispell 4.0
     Reference: http:atnetsend.ne.mediaone.net/ispell/ispell_port.html
     1. Download http:atnetsend.ne.mediaone.net/ispell/files/ispell4_v03_i386.zip
    2. Extract "ispell" to DRIVE:/.../emacs-21.1/info
        i.e i:/gnu/emacs-21.1/info
    3. Add following line to DRIVE:/.../emacs-21.1/info/dir
        * ispell v4: (ispell).  GNU ispell version 4 for NTEmacs.
    4. Define the HOME environment variable if not done yet. 
        i.e HOME=i:/home/yuleshow
    5. Create an ispell directory, and set it to system $path
        i.e i:/gnu/emacsen/ispell
    6. Extract  "ispell.dict", "ispell.words",build.exe", "dict", "expand.exe", "freq.exe" "ispell.exe" and "look.exe"
       into ispell directory.
    7. Set ispell folder to two system environment variable.
        ISPELL_DICTIONARY=x:\xxx\...\ispell.dict 
        ISPELL_WORDS=x:\xxx\...\ispell.words
        i.e
             ISPELL_DICTIONARY=i:\gnu\emacsen\ispell\ispell.dict
             ISPELL_WORDS=i:\gnu\emacsen\ispell\ispell.words
    7. Define both TMP and TEMP environment variables to point to your temporary file directory.
       I think under Windows 2000, this step can be ignored.
    8. Extract "ispell4.el" and "ispell4.elc" to DRIVE:/.../emacs-21.1/lisp/ as "ispell.el" and "ispell.elc",
       respectively.
