After setting up xfce4 under WSL(Windows Subsystem for Linx) in Windows 10, I tried to add chinese input support.
Looks like the following steps need to be taken:
1. Install a Chinese font, for example:
sudo apt install fonts-noto-cjk
2. Install fcitx
sudo apt install fcitx fcitx-googlepinyin
3. Configure environment variable and start fcitx with xfce
Create a file under /usr/bin/xfce4 with the following content
#!/bin/sh
export GTK_IM_MODULE=fcitx
export QT_IM_MODULE=fcitx
export XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx
xfce4-session
fcitx
Add executable permission to the file
sudo chmod a+x /usr/bin/xfce4
4. quit VcXSrv. Close WSL console
5. Start VcXSrv, run WSL console(i.e. BashOnWindows) and start xfce4 again.
/usr/bin/xfce4
