enable ibus ibus-chewing input method on slackware 13.37


Hi, I am using slackware 13.37, I have already installed ibus and ibus-chewing (酷音)input method into the system. But I am not sure how to make it available. It seems like I have to set some environment varialbes. In the editor, when I right click, I am able to see input methods > X input method.
I found somewhwere that I can edit the variables but I am not sure where the file is:
Code:
Run gnome, kde or old X applications¶

Set following environment varible for Gtk: 
 $ GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus 
 For KDE: 
 $ QT_IM_MODULE=ibus
and other X applications 
 $ XMODIFIERS="@im=ibus"
e.g. 
 $ env GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus gedit
To enable input method, Type Ctrl + Space.
Thanks,
Ted
