uim for Debian
--------------
* Related packages
- You have to install conversion engines and interface packages to
make uim useful for Japanese, etc..
Japanese:
anthy: anthy, uim-anthy.
skk: skkdic, uim-skk.
t-code: t-code, uim-tcode.
Others:
m17nlib: libm17n-0, m17n-db, m17n-lib-bin, uim-m17nlib
look: wordlist, uim-look.
* Configuration (easy way)
- im-config package will do for you.
For user configuration, execute as:
$ im-config
For system wide default, execute as:
$ sudo im-config
You can enable GUI menu by right-clicking menu under GNOME -> "Edit Menu" and
check menu entry to be activated. Then you can use this GUI menu for user
configuration as "System" -> "Preferences" -> "Input Method" which runs
"im-config".
"System" -> "Preferences" -> "Input Method" and select
"universal input method (uim)"
This will enable first found status display dialogue from the following.
- "uim-toolbar-gtk-systray" for systray (GTK+).
- "uim-toolbar-gtk" for toolbar (GTK+).
- "uim-toolbar-qt" for toolbar (Qt).
Relogin to user account to refresh X session.
- Use GUI tool, e.g., uim-pref-gtk which comes in uim-gtk2.0
to set up uim (choice between conversion engines etc.):
Desktop -> Preferences -> Preference of uim
Right clicking toolbar will also get you to "Preference".
* Configuration (manual way)
- You have to set environmental variable as following for
classic X applications to use uim:
XMODIFIERS=@im=uim; export XMODIFIERS
- You may set environmental variable as following if you
wish to use uim via XIM for GTK applications as the default.
GTK_IM_MODULE=xim; export GTK_IM_MODULE
Choosing XIM is considered to be less problematic. You can
change IM by right clicking the GTK applications too.
- You may set environmental variable as following if you
wish to use uim IM module for GTK applications as the default.
GTK_IM_MODULE=uim; export GTK_IM_MODULE
- Deprecated method of uim configuration:
* Write down default IM in ~/.uim.
e.g) Set Anthy as default input method.
(define default-im-name 'anthy)
This is not compatible with GUI configuration described above.
* Using uim-fep
- You cannot input "shift-space" as generic-on-key and generic-off-key.
But they are default global key settings.
So you have to change generic-on-key and generic-off-key by uim-pref-*.
