       dxhangulim - An input server for Korean

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       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    [Toc]    [Back]
       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  are  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.
  Applications  must  be started after the server is
       started. However, if the application contains an XmText or
       XmTextField  widget with the Reconnectable resource set to
       True, the application will be able to establish a  connection
  with  the  input  server when the application starts
       first or when the server  stops  and  restarts.   See  the
       XmText(3X) or XmTextField(3X) reference pages.

RESTRICTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       This  input  server  uses  X11R6. It can connect to inputmethod
 clients running X11R4, X11R5, or  X11R6  under  the
       same   locale.  However,  support  for  multiple  monitors
       (multi-head systems) is available  only  to  clients  also
       running X11R6. Support for multiple monitors is not available
 to input method clients using X11R5 or X11R4.

       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 Shift/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  something  other  than
       Shift/Space.
