Can I input Chinese in my xterm?

  • 772

I have Chinese input working. I have xterm working. I have utf-8 working in my xterm. For example, I can see the lightning bolt unicode character. But when I input Chinese characters, I get those blocks. Whats up with that?

Here is what I'm doing in my .Xresources:

xterm*faceName: Monospace:9
xterm*boldFont: Monospace:9
xterm*faceNameDoublesize: Monospace:9

Also, I'm using iBus to input Chinese.
