KMap IME is a Java based Input Method Editor. It enables the user to type any language/Unicode character. Using the kmap file format from Yudit it currently supports more than 100 different languages.

Here are some key features of "KMap IME":

� enables input of all Unicode3 characters � support for Yudit's *.kmap input schemes � support for Simredo's *.kmp input schemes � dynamically re-loads/updates available schemes while running � easy to add/edit new schemes

Requirements:

� Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 or higher � unzip � the InputMethodHotKey tool from http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/InputMethod/inputmethod.html#Input_method_selection_by_a_hot_key � and of course a Java application waiting for keyboard input, e.g. JEdit

� download the newest version of KMap � extract the downloaded zip file into a new dir � change to the directory where you put the content of the zip � in this very directory double click the kmap_ime.jar or execute "java -jar kmap_ime.jar" (without the quotes) in a shell � copy the kmap_ime.jar file to a directory listed under "lib extension dirs"

If there is an older version of kmap_ime.jar please overwrite/remove it.

If you want to use the graphic user interface, then you have to copy the file kmap_ime_gui.jar into the same dir where you copied kmap_ime.jar

� copy some files from the kmaps dir to a dir listed under "data dirs" � now setup a way to call the input methods:

a). download the newest version of Sun's InputMethodHotKey tool from http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/tsc/articles/InputMethod/inputmethod.html#Input_method_selection_by_a_hot_key b). change to the directory where you saved the tool c). in this very dir double click the "InputMethodHotKey.jar" file or execute "java -jar InputMethodHotKey.jar" (without quotes) in a shell d). configure a shortcut
