NAME

       dxhangulim - An input server for Korean

DESCRIPTION

       In  a  Motif environment such as CDE, Asian language input methods are supported by independent processes called input servers.	The Korean
       input server (dxhangulim) is an X client process that can run on a standard X server, provided that the	server	system	has  the  required
       Korean  fonts installed. This means that the Korean input server can run on any system that can access your X display device, including the
       device itself.

   Starting the Input Server
       If your CDE session language is set to Korean, the Korean input server is started automatically, and both  the  language  setting  and  the
       Korean  input  method  is available for applications that you start during that session. If your session language is not set to Korean, you
       can switch to Korean from a terminal emulation window by setting the LANG environment variable to a Korean locale. From the  same  terminal
       emulation  window, you must also use the command line to start the Korean input method server and then other applications in which you want
       to use Korean.

       You can start the input server on your local workstation by using the following command:

       % /usr/bin/X11/dxhangulim &

       If you want to start the input server on a remote system, log on the remote system, and enter the following commands. Substitute  the  name
       of your local system for <display_name> in the first command.

       % setenv DISPLAY <display_name>:0 % /usr/bin/X11/dxhangulim &

       After  the  input  server  is  started,	any Motif applications that have been internationalized to support Korean can communicate with the
       server to obtain input method services. However, remember that these applications must be started after the server is started.

   PC-Style Keyboard Restrictions
       If you are using a PC-style keyboard, the input server may not recognize the Backspace key as the way to delete the previous  character	in
       the input method preediting area. In this case, you must use the Delete key to delete the character.

       The default Alt-Space key sequence for activating and deactivating the input method may not work under CDE. In this case, invoke the dialog
       box for Input Method Customization and change the key sequence for Start Input Method and End Input Method to be something other than  Alt-
       Space. For example, you could change the sequence to be Ctrl-Space.

NAME

       im-switch - set up input method for X Window

SYNOPSIS

       im-switch [-v][-z ll_CC] -s inputmethodname

       im-switch [-v][-z ll_CC] -c

       im-switch [-v][-z ll_CC] -a

       im-switch [-v][-z ll_CC] -l

       im-switch -h

       im-switch

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page very briefly documents the im-switch command.

       The  im-switch  command provides the framework to configure and to switch the input method on X Window System depending on the locale. This
       input method is the essential mechanism for Japanese, Chinese and Korean (CJK) languages to enter their non-ASCII native characters.

       Some input methods such as IBus, SCIM, and uim support not only one of these CJK languages but support almost all languages  simultaneously
       by dynamically switching keyboard modes with GUI.

       The  most desirable input method is provided as the configurable system wide default using Debian alternatives mechanism with /etc/alterna-
       tives/xinput-ll_CC link.

       The X start up code sources /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90im-switch which read the configuration file and activates the	input  method.	 The  user
       configuration  files  and  links are located in ~/.xinput.d/ .  The system configuration files and links are located in /etc/X11/xinit/xin-
       put.d/ .

       This structure ensures to have different input methods to be installed side-by-side.

       im-switch understands the following options:

       -v     Display verbose message during execution.

       -z ll_CC
	      Set up the input method for X run under ll_CC locale (ISO 639 / ISO 3188).  When changing the fallback default for all locales,  use
	      all_ALL as the quasi-locale value here.  The setup by this all_ALL does not override specific setups.

       -s inputmethodname
	      Set up the input method to use inputmethodname.

       -c     Configure the input method with menu. (Under X, this uses GUI.)

       -a     Reset the input method to the system default.

       -l     List the input method configuration.

       -h     Print a help message to the standard output and exit.

       When  the  im-switch command is invoked without any command arguments, it functions as -c option case.  This is meant to be used by the GUI
       menu.
