More info about KMFL
The current implementation of KMFL uses the SCIM platform to handle the input method interface to X. KMFL consists of three parts: a library which provides an engine to interpret compiled KMFL keyboard tables, a keyboard compiler, and an SCIM input method engine. Note that the library and the keyboard compiler are independent from the SCIM input method. This design allows KMFL to use other frameworks such as IIIMF to provide input method services to an operating system at a later date.
KMFL aims to be source compatible with keyboards developed for Keyman. Binary keyboards compiled for Keyman will not run under KMFL. Such keyboards will need to be compiled with the supplied KMFL keyboard compiler. KMFL is also Unicode based, and does not support legacy code pages and encodings.Please visit its homepage for more information.
