    i know i’ve wanted something like this for a while. i really didn’t want to have to figure out how to get the existing keyman keyboard layout to work on linux, because fcitx works fine for all my other input needs, and i already knew how fcitx worked as i made an addon to get on-screen keyboards to work with it a while back…

    as i know not many people would dare venture in the world of fcitx addons, due to the quite horrendous state the documentation is in… so if i wasn’t gonna do it, likely no-one else was, so i did it! and shared it with everyone, because the worse that could happen is that someone helps me make it better!









  • i’m not saying that you should use a VM if everything on your PC requires windows… only if one specific app you sometimes need doesn’t work on linux!

    as someone studying foreign languages for example, i know that if i want to do translation, i’ll have to use windows for some specific proprietary cat software. but i don’t spend my whole time in a cat software! i would also need to work with email, and some projects would require me to use a browser-based tao software, and in those cases, i’d much prefer being on linux to use things like a better japanese input, tiling window management if on a laptop, and generally, not having to deal with advertisments!
