Try MIM at http://crl.nmsu.edu/~mleisher/mim/mim-1.0.tar.gz. The goal was to
have something small and simple that works and is easy to add to applications.
It has some dependencies on Xlib that can be removed fairly easily. It
doesn't currently support Chinese or Japanese input via conversion servers
(i.e. Canna, Sj3, [jkst]Wnn, etc.). Table style input was going to be added.
It's been a couple years since I've had time to fiddle with it and no telling
when I will be able to do so again, but it's available to fold, spindle or
mutilate.
