Traditional Pinyin input for Mac

[purple_hoodie]

Hi all, does anyone have a good suggestion for a Pinyin input method for Mac with Traditional Characters? I'm using OS X 10.6.8.

Thanks!

Can you elaborate on what you dont like about the normal built in mac (traditional) pinyin input method ? it might help us understand your question a little better.

ie Whats wrong with:

"System Preferences -> Language & Text -> Input Sources -> Chinese traditional -> Pinyin - Traditional"

QIM, both for simplified and traditional. Because its waaay better than the built-in one.

If you don't like the built-in system (which has reportedly improved considerably over earlier versions), then go with QIM, which is now freeware.

I use 智能拼音. While not as predictive as Sogou pinyin, you can increase the the font to as large a font as you want. This is important to me as I hate squinting trying to read Chinese characters.

Yeah the system standard input method is terrible, but QIM is great! Thanks all.

I use QIM for traditional and 搜狗拼音 for simplified.

I also find 搜狗拼音 to be better in its predictions than all other input systems I've tried.

Unfortunately, there is no traditional version right now, but last time I checked, they said they were working on a traditional version so it might be worth following or at least checking from time to time.
