There is a definition document, the XIM specification inside X source, in
English.
Also, for xcin, the author also wrote two article describing the internal of
xcin :
1. http://xcin.linux.org.tw/xcin/2.5.2/En/internal/structer.En.html
2. http://xcin.linux.org.tw/xcin/2.5.2/En/internal/module.En.html
The following is a aritcle, descibing X input method from the client point of
view,
it might worth to have a note :
1. http://www.ainet.or.jp/~inoue/im/index-e.html
There is one other chinese input method, called Chinput, and some derived
programs like miniChinput. I have modified the miniChinput a lot, cut out a
lot of
unpopular features and maintained a small code size, but I still haven't put
it on a
site. you can d/l it from the link! It might a little useful as the code side
and
organization is simpler and more straight forward.
(http://zenith.nixstyle.net/input/miniChinput-0.0.4.tar.bz2)
I have also find some other doc about XIM but most are localized (chinese / jp
/kr)
so it should be useless for you. Anyway keep seeking in this list or the list
archieve
may have some harvest, as may be some other south east asia country has it's
own
input method server available and those author may also help you.
Anyway, good luck : )
