       sim, SIM - Software phrase input method

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  phrase  input  method is an input method that is commonly
 used in a Chinese environment. The  software  phrase
       input method (SIM) is a a mechanism supported by the Asian
       tty driver, atty and  the  simd  daemon  through  the  utx
       facility (see atty(7), simd(8), and utx(7)).

       The  stty  command  activates  the  software  phrase input
       method, while the phrase utility creates and  manages  the
       phrase database (see stty(1) and phrase(1)).

       Changes to the phrase database may not be reflected in SIM
       sessions that were started before the changes  were  made.
       Therefore,  users  have  to stop and then restart SIM sessions
 using the stty command to have access to the changed
       phrase database.
