Enable or disable use of the selected input method.
Select a new input method for the current buffer.
Describe the input method method (describe-input-method
). By
default, it describes the current input method (if any). This description
should give you the full details of how to use any particular input method.
Display a list of all the supported input methods.
To choose an input method for the current buffer, use C-x <RET>
C-\ (set-input-method
). This command reads the input method name
from the minibuffer; the name normally starts with the language environment
that it is meant to be used with. The variable current-input-method
records which input method is selected.
Input methods use various sequences of ASCII characters to stand
for non-ASCII characters. Sometimes it is useful to turn off the
input method temporarily. To do this, type C-\
(toggle-input-method
). To reenable the input method, type C-\
again.
If you type C-\ and you have not yet selected an input method, it prompts for you to specify one. This has the same effect as using C-x <RET> C-\ to specify an input method.
When invoked with a numeric argument, as in C-u C-\,
toggle-input-method
always prompts you for an input method,
suggesting the most recently selected one as the default.
Selecting a language environment specifies a default input method for use in
various buffers. When you have a default input method, you can select it in
the current buffer by typing C-\. The variable
default-input-method
specifies the default input method (nil
means there is none).
In some language environments, which support several different input
methods, you might want to use an input method different from the default
chosen by set-language-environment
. You can instruct Emacs to select
a different default input method for a certain language environment, if you
wish, by using set-language-environment-hook
(@pxref{Language
Environments, set-language-environment-hook}). For example:
(defun my-chinese-setup () "Set up my private Chinese environment." (if (equal current-language-environment "Chinese-GB") (setq default-input-method "chinese-tonepy"))) (add-hook 'set-language-environment-hook 'my-chinese-setup) |
This sets the default input method to be chinese-tonepy
whenever you
choose a Chinese-GB language environment.
Some input methods for alphabetic scripts work by (in effect) remapping the keyboard to emulate various keyboard layouts commonly used for those scripts. How to do this remapping properly depends on your actual keyboard layout. To specify which layout your keyboard has, use the command M-x quail-set-keyboard-layout.
You can use the command M-x quail-show-key to show what key (or key sequence) to type in order to input the character following point, using the selected keyboard layout. The command C-u C-x = also shows that information in addition to the other information about the character.
To see a list of all the supported input methods, type M-x list-input-methods. The list gives information about each input method, including the string that stands for it in the mode line.
