NAME
dxhangulim - An input server for Korean
DESCRIPTION
In the DECwindows Motif environment, 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 Ko-
rean fonts installed. This means that the Korean input server can run
on any system that can access your X display device, including the de-
vice itself.
The DIGITAL UNIX Korean input server is interoperable with all existing
DECwindows Motif/Hangul platforms, including VMS DECwindows Mo-
tif/Hangul and UWS/Hangul. In addition, the server can provide input
method services to the R6 X library (Xlib) on DIGITAL UNIX systems.
INVOKING THE INPUT SERVER
Before you can input Korean data, you should first start the Korean in-
put server on your workstation or any system that can be accessed by
your workstation through the network. Your language setting should be
Korean before you start the server through the Session Manager Option
menu and before you start applications where you will input Korean.
The following sections discuss different ways to start the input
server.
Starting the Input Server from the Session Manager
You can start the Korean input server after logging in to a session by
choosing Hangul IM from the Session Manager's Application menu.
Note
Your session language should be Korean before starting the server. If
Hangul IM does not appear in the Session Manager's Application menu,
change the Language setting in the Option menu of Session Manager to
one of the Korean options, for example, to Korean. Then, save the set-
ting, quit the session, and log in again. For more information on set-
ting language, see Korean(5).
Controlling Automatic Startup of the Server
If, when you start your session, the Language option is already set to
one of the choices for Korean, the menu item Hangul IM is added to the
Session Manager's Automatic Startup list. In this case, the input
server starts automatically when you start a new session. If you do not
want the input server to start automatically for each session, you can
use the Session Manager's Option menu to remove Hangul IM from the Au-
tomatic Startup list. Be sure to save this change before you quit your
session.
Note
Applications that are started before the input server cannot connect to
it. Therefore, if the Automatic Startup list contains Hangul IM, it
should be the first application on the list.
Using a Command to Start the Input Server
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 DECwindows Motif applications
that have been internationalized to support Korean can communicate with
the server to obtain input method services. Remember that these appli-
cations must be started after the server.
