Input methods

From Gentoo Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

An input method is a way to use any data as input, for example to use a standard Latin keyboard for writing Chinese characters. Gentoo has several input method frameworks available:

  • ATOKX — Japanese
  • fcitx — supporting multiple languages and IMEs, mostly for Simplified Chinese, but also other scripts
  • IBus — supporting multiple languages and IMEs
  • SCIM — supporting multiple languages and IMEs
  • uim — supporting multiple languages and IMEs

The gentoo-zh overlay includes some more packages (and not just for Chinese).
