[Uim] Where is traditional Chinese Pinyin?

[Chunghau Lee]

Hi again,

The problem is that I can't even enable/add Pinyin into the list of
input methods in the UIM preferences.  Here is a shot of the dialog
showing the Japanese and Korean inputs, but not Pinyin.

I'm hoping there are config files somewhere in which I can add pinyin-big5.

Thanks.
