But I think that less people will resize their PuTTY window into 128 x 14 and keep it on top of desktop (but I do). For those who will switch PuTTY to background, they may like to hear a alert sound when some keywords (e.g., their own ID) appeared on IRC channel.

Here is a tutorial from my friend "asee," which can make this possible:

  • Enter the following commend in irssi, to enable irssi making a sounding signal:
    1. /set beep_when_window_active ON
    2. /set beep_when_away ON
    3. /set beep_msg_level MSGS NOTICES DCC DCCMSGS HILIGHT
    4. /set bell_beeps ON
  • Press the follow keys in screen, to make screen relay sounding signal from irssi:
    • <Ctrl>-<a> <Ctrl>-<g>
  • Modify your PuTTY configuration as below, to let PuTTY play a choosen wave file when receiving any sounding signal:
    • Terminal » Bell » Set the style of the bell » Play a custom sound file

    • Now you can hear when anyone paging you on IRC channel.

But I changed my mind again and back to Going IME now. Array IME is not bad but not good enough for my purporse.

    What do I need? I need a Chinese IME which doesn't relay on English keyboard layout or can work fine with Dvorak. I need it works like Dvorak when typing in Chinese-English combinations and symbols, or when displaying visual feedback.

    Array IME is good and easy to learn. Just two days I can type seven words per minute (twenty minutes a word in the beginning). But its symbol-input was designed by QWERTY. It also displaies QWERTY as visual feedback.

    Besides, I am used to think with pronunciation rather then penmanship of words. I have to stop and then recall penmanship all the time when using Array IME.

    Now I have to tweak Going into Dvorak.

    ]]> First I restore all changes in "Dvorak and Array Chinese Input Method." Then I remap my keyboard with kbdmapper ( Jedi_W2_Dvorak.reg ). So all IMEs are followed Dvorak now.

    Finally I hope these could be done in next release of Going IME: re-locate some keys ( ㄓ, ㄔ, ㄕ, ㄘ, ㄜ, ㄛ, ˙, ˊ, ˇ, ˋ ; their location is original designed for QWERTY ) and modify "ASDF GHJK ZXCV" to "AOEU HTNS HTNS" in word-selection mode.
