Hi, Tang:
great! Now I can correctly visualise chinese characters in files.
I followed the first procedure you suggested.
First I checked the presence of the font name 'fangsong ti' with the command
$xfontsel
. Then I said
emacs .emacs
and added the lines you suggested at number 1) of your message.
Then I closed Emacs, reopened it with the file math1gb.tex and...
voil\`a! The chinese characters finally appeared.
Besides, I can easily switch from chinese to english input method and vice
versa just tiping 'C-\'.
Fantastic!
Now I'm asking you two more things:
1) how is it possible to display chinese characters in emails, like you do,
and in the same format you use,
which I find very nice
(though I send and receive e-mail using Windows and not Linux,
because I didn't manage to configure Internet connection with Linux);
2) how can I do a surprise to my sister and type in Chinese the message
'Welcome back home, Carolina!'
that I can show her next week?
Thanks again for your precious help,
Rodolfo
