Description Harshula Jayasuriya 2010-11-30 02:49:22 UTC
Description of problem:

* Currently the m17n ranks are defined in a compiled binary:
https://github.com/ibus/ibus-m17n/blob/master/src/m17nutil.c

Instead, could the ranks be defined a text config file?

Regards,
Harshula

Comment 1 Daiki Ueno 2010-12-03 08:58:27 UTC
Well, though I see little benefit to end-users, this would be helpful for packagers :)  Actually I got at least 3 bugs to tweak default ranks, default preedit appearances, etc.

The patch:
https://github.com/ueno/ibus-m17n/commit/e564a69405b000aea395d7de0897892d4799b581

The config file is located at /usr/share/ibus-m17n/setup/default.xml.
Testing would be appreciated.
