Greetings I'm developing an embedded application using directfb straight (without using gtk or something else as a wrapper). The application will run from the console (without x or any wm). I want to be able to enter text on a widget of my own design, in any language. The directfb keybuffer, as far as i know provide the keycode and the ascii keysymbol for each key pressed/released.
The question is: is there a way to map each keycode (for each keyboard layout) to each and any language symbol? The only lib i've found that is supposed to do that is uim (universal input method) but although i've compiled it for my platform, i can't use it because it is greatly undocumented. It is declared that the uim has an interface API but there is no tutorial how to use that. Talking about linux input methods there are several (XIM, scim, e.t.c) but none seems to be appropriate. For example XIM needs X, scim is in C++ and that is not good for my low resources Can anyone provide me any means of achieving my goal without having to write all the keycode->keysym code from scratch?
