The following tutorial column from sublime will introduce to you how sublime text 3 supports Chinese input under Ubuntu. I hope it will be helpful to friends in need!

  • Installation of related dependent software---sudo apt-get install build-essential libgtk2.0-dev
  • Copy the following code to sublime text 3 and save it as The file of sublime_imfix.c
/*
 * sublime-imfix.c

        gtk_im_context_set_cursor_location(local_context, rectangle);

  • Find the file location in the terminal and compile this file into the shared library libsublime-imfix.so----Enter the command
    gcc -shared -o libsublime-imfix.so sublime_imfix.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk -2.0` -fPIC
  • Copy libsublime-imfix.so to the folder where sublime_text is located ---sudo mv libsublime-imfix .so /opt/sublime_text/
  • Modify the contents of the file /usr/bin/subl ---sudo gedit /usr/bin/subl
  • will
#!/bin/sh
exec /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text "$@"
Copy after login
  • Modify to
#!/bin/sh
LD_PRELOAD=/opt/sublime_text/libsublime-imfix.so exec /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text "$@"
Copy after login

In this way, we can enter Chinese in sublime by typing subl to start from the terminal!

Finally, in order to facilitate us to use Chinese input when starting directly, we need to open and modify the contents of the file sublime_text.desktop in the terminal command---sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/sublime_text.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Sublime Text
GenericName=Text Editor
Comment=Sophisticated text editor for code,markup and prose
Exec=bash -c "LD_PRELOAD=/opt/sublime_text/libsublime-imfix.so exec /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text %F"
Terminal=false
MimeType=text/plain;

Name=New Window
Exec=bash -c "LD_PRELOAD=/opt/sublime_text/libsublime-imfix.so exec /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text -n"
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
[Desktop Action Document]

Exec=bash -c "LD_PRELOAD=/opt/sublime_text/libsublime-imfix.so exec /opt/sublime_text/sublime_text --command new_file"
OnlyShowIn=Unity;
Copy after login

Replace the content with the above code content, and we are done! Of course, for the sake of stability, it is better to start from the terminal!

*Note
Because we will see two icons, one of which can input Chinese only when it is started, and the other one still cannot input
