;;; Commentary:

;; This module adds XIM support for EXWM and allows sending characters
;; generated by any Emacs's builtin input method (info node `Input Methods')
;; to X windows.

;; This module is essentially an X input method server utilizing Emacs as
;; its backend.  It talks with X windows through the XIM protocol.  The XIM
;; protocol is quite flexible by itself, stating that an implementation can
;; create network connections of various types as well as make use of an
;; existing X connection for communication, and that an IM server may
;; support multiple transport versions, various input styles and several
;; event flow modals, etc.  Here we only make choices that are most popular
;; among other IM servers and more importantly, practical for Emacs to act
;; as an IM server:
;;
;; + Packets are transported on top of an X connection like most IMEs.
;; + Only transport version 0.0 (i.e. only-CM & Property-with-CM) is
;;   supported (same as "IM Server Developers Kit", adopted by most IMEs).
;; + Only support static event flow, on-demand-synchronous method.
;; + Only "root-window" input style is supported.

;; To use this module, first load and enable it as follows:
;;
;;    (require 'exwm-xim)
;;    (exwm-xim-enable)
;;
;; A keybinding for `toggle-input-method' is probably required to turn on &
;; off an input method (default to `default-input-method').  It's bound to
;; 'C-\' by default and can be made reachable when working with X windows:
;;
;;    (push ?\C-\\ exwm-input-prefix-keys)
;;
;; It's also required (and error-prone) to setup environment variables to
;; make applications actually use this input method.  Typically the
;; following lines should be inserted into '~/.xinitrc'.
;;
;;    export XMODIFIERS=@im=exwm-xim
;;    export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
;;    export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
;;    export CLUTTER_IM_MODULE=xim
