Hello everyone,
Myself, Mike McCormack and Ulrich Czekalla have been working like mad to get XIM into Wine. We have a very early and unclean patch for people to try and help improve.
This patch applies to the winehq tip as of today and probably changed a bunch of things it does not need to. If you use XIM input and can work with this please give it a try.
I know it works with Japanese input with kinput2 on my redhat 7.2 machine. Since i do japanese that is what i have been testing but i have not idea for any other input methods or languages.
Some known issues.
* The xim box does not appear in the right place, and i cannot see what i type as i type it in.
* the input does not always go to the correct edit window.
* Presently it probably only works for edit controls...
Hope this helps people!
