IIIMF Project Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
|
Installation/Setup Related
 |
| Q |
I have installed IIIMF pacakges, but I am not sure whether it is
working or not.
|
| A |
First, have a look if you have correct environment variables by
running printenv command. Your environment variables will have something
like this:
XMODIFIERS=@im=htt
GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim
2. Please check if you have htt_server and htt_xbe running:
ie. # ps -efw | grep htt | grep -v grep
3. Then, run applications from the another terminal and press ctrl+space.
|
|
| Q |
When I encounter the problem, how I can capture debug info?
|
| A |
First, stop/kill related processes
ie. # service IIim stop
# killall httx
Then run the server with debug option.
# /usr/sbin/htt_server -d
Open another terminal and run
# /usr/bin/httx
Then try to run application with XMODIFIERS=@im=htt and
GTK_IM_MODULE=iiim exported in the terminal you are running from. Go
back to htt_server terminal window and look for any error messages.
|
|
| Q |
I don't get CannaLE (or insert any LE that uses external dictionary server)
to work. What's wrong?
|
| A |
Please check if you have related external dictionary server
running. For example, CannaLE needs cannaserver to be up and
running, so check with
# ps -efw | grep canna | grep -v grep
and Restart if required.
Then send HUP signal to htt_server process to reload the language engine.
|
|
| Q |
What's the list of default hotkeys in IIIMF?
|
| A |
Here are the default key strokes.
|
General:
|
Ctrl+Space Activate/Deactivate language engine
Ctrl+Alt+l(Ctrl+Alt+s) Shows language switching window
(PageDown/PageUp to change pages)
|
|
UnitLE:
|
F5: Switch to different languages within UNIT Input Method
F6: Switch to different layout within the language
|
|
|
| Q |
I am an emacs user, and cntl+space conflicts with set-mark-command.
I want to use shift+space for activating/deactivating language engine.
How do I do this?
|
| A |
Generic keybinding editing capability is in development, but until then,
you can specify activating/deactivating keys(aka trigger keys or
conversion-on keys with "-conversionkeys" option when you run
htt_server.
For X applications, you can change it by putting
"*conversionOnKeys: Zenkaku_Hankaku <Shift>space"
into xrdb. If you are using ATOKX language engine, the engine refers
to the file at /usr/lib/im/locale/ja/atokserver/shift_space, so
you may want to create this file by
# touch /usr/lib/im/locale/ja/atokserver/shift_space

Language Engine(Input Methods) Development Related
|
| Q |
I am interested in writing my own input method using IIIMF. How can I write a
language engine for it?
|
| A |
Reading Language Engine Interface Specification is always a good
start to learn about the LEIF API. You can always checkout the sampleja
sample code and start from there. There are many language engines
currently are still in development and accept for contributions. Check
out the language engine list and contact the maintainer if you are
interested!
|
|
| Q |
My language engine does not need full complex functionality, but
rather simple. Is the LEIF API the only API for writing Language
Engine/Input Method for IIIMF?
|
| A |
If your language engine/Input Method does not require very complex
logic, you may want to play with UNIT(UNIcode Table based)
language engine by adding your own tables. UNIT language engine
also provides sub object plug-in mechanism to add your own logic
to handle input, in addition to your own table.
|
|
| Q |
I have written own language engine, but how I can show my language
engine on the gnome-im-switcher applet listings?
It appears that the gnome-im-switcher applet only shows language name
but no language engine name.
|
| A |
This is the known bug of gnome-im-switcher applet, filed as bug id#0000003
(http://www.openi18n.org/mantis/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0000003)
Until this bug is fixed, you can use the hotkey to show language
engine listings; <Alt><Ctl>s or <Alt><Ctl>l.
|
|
| Q |
I have my own language engine, but it is written as single user/single
context library. Do I have to rewrite my language engine to handle
multi-user and multi-context?
|
| A |
It is nice if you can extend your language engine to handle
multi-user/multi-context for own sake :-) if possible, but IIIMF
allows such single user/single context engines to work without
extending them as multi-user/multi-context. The mechanism is called
vmseparator, which has been used for supporting older engines which
are X-dependent, locale dependent, and with single-user assumption,
inherited from older versions of "htt" originally written as XIM
server in 1989, via the older version of LEIF interface, delivered
as a part of im-sdk till r10.x. We once dropped it in r11.x releases,
but will be revived in r12.x releases.

Security Related
|
| Q |
I have heard that IIIMF supports several configurations on how to connect to
IIIMF input method server and how to authenticate each other. What exactly those methods are?
|
| A |
How you combine transport options and authentication options are not
limited but the following is an example of typical scenarios.
|
Scenario
|
Server Auth
|
Client Auth
|
Transport
|
Access Controll
|
Scenario 1
For accessing the IIIMF server on the remote host which
a user does not have a login account via untrustful LAN and WAN.
|
X.509
|
X.509
|
encrypting with SSL/TLS
|
By host/network with TCPWrapper
|
Scenario 2
For accessing the IIIMF server on the remote host which
a user has a login account via untrustful LAN and WAN.
|
X.509
|
X.509 or PAM
|
Port forwarding with ssh or stunnel
|
UNIX account
|
Scenario 3
For accessing the IIIMF server on the localhost(127.0.0.1) running as
a system daemon via INET domain socket.
|
Use previledged port or X.509 if server runs as
non-privileged user.
|
PAM or X.509
|
No encryption or encrypting with SSL/TLS
|
PAM
|
Scenario 4
For accessing the IIIMF server on the localhost(127.0.0.1)
running as a system daemon via UNIX domain socket.
|
uid/gid of socket file
|
socket credential
|
No encryption
|
PAM
|
Scenario 5
For accessing the IIIMF server on the localhost(127.0.0.1)
running as a users private server via private UNIX domain socket.
|
uid/gid of socket file
|
uid/gid of socket file and private path
|
No encryption
|
Permission of socket file
|
|
|
| Q |
I have heard that sniffer can steal key sequence of
server/client system like IIIMF?
|
| A |
If that is true, we better stop using X Window System :-), as on X
Window System, all keys you type are sent back and forth between X
Server and X client, just like IIIMF server and client.
IIIMF uses UNIX domain socket or INET domain socket on
localhost(127.0.0.1) for the communication between client and
server, the communication packets between them won't be sent out
of localhost. Therefore, unless an intruder obtain privilege on
localhost, it is practically impossible to steal key sequence a
user types. For accessing remote IIIMF server, IIIMF uses SSL/TLS
to encrypt the transport, it is practically impossible to steal
key sequence that a user types in
|
|
| Q |
I have heard that IIIMF sends password in plain text that one can
sniff?
|
| A |
It is not really password but more likely a cookie to identify that
the client requesting connection has an access to the file stored in
user's home directory protected with UNIX permission 0600, and sent
over UNIX domain socket or INET domain socket on localhost(127.0.0.1)
connection which noone but only root can sniff(root anyway can read
the file of permission 0600 on ordinary system ) for authentication by
PAM. There is no password of your account is sent or any passwords are
sent over the network without encryption. Also PAM authentication is
never intended to authenticate remote connection over untrusted
network without SSL/TLS connection.
