The little window showing what is the current language you can
input is called "status area window" or "input mode selection window."
The status area is a terminology being used in X11 window system BTW.

You can turn this window on and off by using the steps described in
the following URL:

http://developer.sun.com/techtopics/global/products_platforms/jds/reference/faqs/input-mode-window.html

If you'd like to also know on how to switch among supported input
languages, please see "Accessing an Input Mode" and also the next a few
sections of the S10 International Language Environments Guide at
the following:

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-2521/6mi67tj50?a=view

Also, it seems there is a bug somewhere between GTK+ and Input Method
implementation that using mouse to click on the status area may not be
working with any GTK+ applications in some cases. In that case, please use
input mode switch key sequences instead.

The above is for UTF-8 locales by the way. If you're interested in Russian
KOI8-R locale, you can use Contrl+T, Control+Space, or Compose c c
key sequences to toggle between Russian and English. One way to also
examine about the toggle/switch key sequences is to look at
SWITCH_STATE_TO key values at /usr/openwin/lib/locale/<locale>/Compose
file where the <locale> could be something like ru_RU.KOI8-R but
that's not supported Stable interface and can be changed in future
without any notice.
