Functions


MSymbol minput_event_to_key (MFrame *frame, void *event)
Convert an event to an input key.

Variables


MInputDriver minput_gui_driver
Input driver for internal input methods on window systems.
MSymbol Mxim
Symbol of the name 'xim'.

Detailed Description

Input method support on window systems.

The input driver minput_gui_driver is provided for internal input methods that is useful on window systems. It displays preedit text and status text at the inputting spot. See the documentation of minput_gui_driver for more details.

In the m17n-X library, the foreign input method of name Mxim is provided. It uses XIM (X Input Method) as a background input engine. The symbol Mxim has a property Minput_driver whose value is a pointer to the input driver minput_xim_driver. See the documentation of minput_xim_driver for more details.

Variable Documentation

MInputDriver minput_gui_driver

Input driver for internal input methods on window systems. The input driver minput_gui_driver is for internal input methods to be used on window systems.

It creates sub-windows for a preedit text and a status text, and displays them at the input spot set by the function minput_set_spot().

The macro M17N_INIT() set the variable minput_driver to the pointer to this driver so that all internal input methods use it.

Therefore, unless minput_driver is changed from the default, the driver dependent arguments to the functions whose name begin with minput_ must are treated as follows.

The argument arg of the function minput_open_im() is ignored.

The argument arg of the function minput_create_ic() must be a pointer to the structure MInputGUIArgIC. See the documentation of MInputGUIArgIC for more details.

If the argument key of function minput_filter() is Mnil, the argument arg must be a pointer to the object of type XEvent. In that case, key is generated from arg.

The argument arg of the function minput_lookup() must be the same one as that of the function minput_filter().

MSymbol Mxim

Symbol of the name 'xim'. The variable Mxim is a symbol of name 'xim'. It is a name of the input method driver minput_xim_driver.
