Re: [scim-user] Application gtk


I understand what the first post intends to do..
I am also looking for a way to "pilot" scim from a gtk application, is there
a way to control scim from within the application, like simulate keypresses
and kana to kanji conversion?

I am developing a touch-panel only interface application, and I'd like to
know if scim input can be activate via the application without keyboard
intervention.  The keyboard in my application is a soft-keyboard -- a
customized graphical keyboard interactive to the user via the touch-panel
only..

I've looked around the documentation and developer docs, but I haven't found
any information on how to do this..

Any help is greatly appreciated..
Thanks,
