Origin

ftp://sunsite.sut.ac.jp/pub/archives/linux/Incoming/tkdesk-1.1.tar.gz

A japanization patch:

tkdesk-1.1+jp.patch
was created to allow viewing and editing of Japanese text.

How to Build TkDesk from SRC

The TkDesk RPM building procedure is described in its spec file:
jp-tkdesk.spec

The point is to apply the above JP-patch and compile the patched source files with CC_OPTS='-O -DKANJI -DKINPUT2'.
You can rebuild the RPM using its corresponding SRPM as:

# rpm --rebuild <somewhere>/jp-TkDesk-1.1-2a.src.rpm

How to Install TkDesk

First install a shared version of the japanized tcl7.6/tk4.2 combo:
# rpm -Uvh <somewhere>/jp-tcltk-7.6p2_4.2p2-2b.ppc.rpm
if you haven't.

Otherwise, go straight ahead to the installation of TkDesk:

# rpm -Uvh <somewhere>/jp-TkDesk-1.1-2a.ppc.rpm

In order to input Japanese characters, you have to have kinput2 started.

Customizing TkDesk

Examples of customized configuration files can be found here.

If you have xfontsel contained in X11R6-contrib installed, you may want to replace

/usr/local/lib/TkDesk/Editor.tcl
by Editor.tcl.tar.gz to change editor fonts on the fly:
# tar -zxvf <somewhere>/Editor.tcl.tar.gz -C /
You cannot, however, save the change at this moment. In this sense, this feature is still experimental.
