CSERVER(8) System Manager's Manual CSERVER(8) NAME
cserver - To start the Chinese server. SYNOPSIS
cserver [-f file ] [-s file ] DEFAULT PATH
/usr/local/bin/cWnn4/cserver DESCRIPTION
During Chinese input, cserver provides the services (such as conversion services) and resources (such as dictionaries, grammar files etc.), required by the users (front-end processors). The input environment is provided by the front-end processor (cuum), which sends its request to the cserver, which subsequently performs the service and return the result back to the front-end processor. Normally, once the system is up, fork() will be executed and the server runs as a background process. The startup of cserver can be set in "/etc/rc" to be executed automatically in the Unix system. When the "cserver" command is executed, all the settings in the initialization file "/usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/cserverrc" will be read and the corresponding initialization operations will be performed. Besides, all resources such as dictionaries and usage frequency files of the clients will be maintained by the cserver. Refer to cWnn man- ual for details on "cserverrc". If the user happens to start up cserver after it has already been started, an error message will be given. Refer to cWnn manual for the error message. OPTIONS
-f file file is the specified initialization file for the server. If this option is not specified, the default initialization file "/usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/cserverrc" will be read. -s file file is the specified logfile of cserver. All error messages will be directed to this specified logfile. When file is specified as "-", (eg. cserver -s -), the error messages will be sent to the standard error output. NOTE
1. The command options inside [ ] shown in the Command Format indicates that they are optional. 2. If they are not required, "cserver" alone is sufficient to start up the Chinese server. 13 May 1992 CSERVER(8)

CUUM(1) General Commands Manual CUUM(1) NAME
cuum - To start the front-end processor. SYNOPSIS
cuum [-h/H] [-x/X] [-k uumkeyfile ] [-c convertkeyfile ] [-r rkfile ] [-D hostname ] [-n username ] [-l lines ] DEFAULT PATH
/usr/local/bin/cWnn4/cuum DESCRIPTION
There are two more input environments: (1) Pinyin centred input environment (2) Zhuyin centred input environment These two environments can be started up by using the "-r" option of the "cuum" command together with the default path of each input envi- ronment. For example, to activate Pinyin centred input environment, execute the following: cuum -r /usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/rk_p Once "cuum" is executed, the initialization file for the front-end processor will be read from ONE of the following paths, in decreasing order: (1) The file specified by the UUMRC C-Shell environment variable. (2) @HOME/.uumrc (3) /usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/uumrc (default path) After the initialization file is read, all the initializing operations set in the file will be performed. If the user happens to start up cuum after it has already been started, an error message will be given. Refer to cWnn manual for the error messages. OPTIONS
-H The input mode will be set to ON after the startup of cuum. -h The input mode will be set to OFF after the startup of cuum (default). -X During cuum startup, the flow control of tty is ON (default). -x During cuum startup, the flow control of tty is OFF. -k uumkeyfile Specify the keyboard definition file. If this option is not specified, ONE of the following definition files will be read by default, in decreasing order: (1) The filename indicated by "setuumkey" in the initialization file "uumrc". (2) /usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/uumkey -c convertkeyfile Specify the conversion file for the keyboard input codes. If this option is not specified, ONE of the following files will be read by default, in decreasing order: (1) The filename indicated by "setconvkey" in the initialization file "uumrc" . (2) /usr/local/lib/wnn/cvt_key_tbl -r rkfile Specify the directory of the input mode definition file of the input automaton. If this option is not specified, ONE of the follow- ings will be read by default, in decreasing order: (1) The directory indicated by "setrkfile" in the initialization file "uumrc". (2) /usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/rk -l lines Specify the number of lines for input at the front-end processor. (0 < lines < window_line-1). The maximum input line is the window line minus one. The default line number is 1. -D hostname Specify the server at another host indicated by hostname. In this case, each user environment may be set via "setenv" in the front-end processor initialization file, for example "uumrc". If no hostname is specified, the one specified by the environment variable CSERVER will be used. -n username Specify the username for the front-end processor. If the username is not specified, the value in environment variable UUMUSER will be taken as the default value. If UUMUSER is not defined, the username of the current front-end processor will be taken. NOTE
1. The command options inside [ ] shown in the Command Format indicates that they are optional. If they are not required, "cuum" alone is sufficient to start up the front-end processor. 2. During the startup of cuum, a "pty" is required from the operating system. If "pty" is unable to be obtained, cuum startup will fail. Similarly, if the initialization file, input automaton definition files and keyboard definition file cannot be read in, cuum startup will also fail. 13 May 1992 CUUM(1)
