I am aware that gnustep probably doesn't work with iiimf and explicitly 
set scim to work in XIM mode instead. GTK_IM_MODULE is configured "xim" 
when I report it works on gtk.

Is this problem on the widget level or on the widget backend level? In 
later case I can try alternative backends. I have no problem typing into 
urxvt which is a xlib application unrelated to gtk/qt.

sent a copy of this message to a newsgroup.
