Supported applications
uim supports the X Window System legacy XIM (short for X Input Method) through the uim-xim
bridge. Many X applications are written in either GTK+ or Qt, which have their own modules dealing with input methods, and uim supports both of these with its GTK+ and Qt immodules.
uim has a bridge for the console (uim-fep
), Emacs (uim.el
), and macOS (MacUIM).
gollark: I think languages which do are generally better than ones which don't.
gollark: Yes. However, having a language which actually ALLOWS YOU TO WRITE THAT as a generalized thing would be better without compromising elegance with weird special cases like Go also does.
gollark: Parallel iterators would make that code clearer, actually simpler (not Go-"simpler") and less error-prone.
gollark: I don't think the way Go encourages you to write code is very good.
gollark: I had a bug because I didn't put in the `src := source` line and something something closure. I probably could have accidentally messed up the waitgroup.
