Description Takashi Iwai 2005-08-30 15:45:39 UTC 
When an app is started after the fresh login on non-KDE/GNOME (I use icewm), the
IM  preedit mode is turned ON automatically.  This must be a side-effect.

The cause looks like "FrontEnd/IMOenedByDefault = true" in ~/.scim/config.  The
value is set first after I set up SCIM with 'shared IM' mode.

A quick glance at codes shows that the shared_im mode is related with
open-by-default.
For example, when I turn on 'shared IM' in the set up at the very first time
(i.e. no ~/.scim/config exists), it writes IMOenedByDefault = false.

Zhe, any comment?

It's correct effect if 'shared IM' is turned on. In such situation, scim will
record the IM status when you toggle it. So the IM is turned on before you
logout, then it will be turned on when you login the next time.

Takashi, what do you think?

Do you still think there is a problem?

I can live with this problem since it's rather a feature although the behavior is somehow strange.  Let's reduce your bug list :)
