Dear Alex, Good luck (!) >> At the same time, I am curious why you want to build a new client rather >> than using existing clients such as kinput2-wnn. You are going to use this >> for Japanese input, correct? > I'm trying to create a client for OS/2. This platform doesn't use X11 > so I assume porting kinput2 would be difficult... How interesting. Before I switched to linux (Debian distribution) on then main PC, I used OS/2 for 4-5 years (I started to use it before the release of Win98). It is true that converting kinput2 for OS/2 may be difficult (but maybe with clever usage of macros?). I remember there was a POSIX-like environment that runs on top of OS/2 that was offered by a few daemons and a linked library. I think there was even a port of X11 server. I am not sure if it is still available, though. (Well, I was not even sure of the availability of OS/2, but found a reference to ArcaOS 5.0 Blue Lion.) I am afraid that I threw away all the print copies and CDROMs of OS/2 magazine (in Japanese) a few years ago. So I can't even figure out what the software was called. But there was a guide about porting X11 applications to this environment. I remember writing my own implementation of getenv() so that I could port a program from Linux to OS/2. getenv() was missing although fork/spawn was somehow supported (I think by means of a clever macro, etc.) Sorry that I could not help on this aspect of porting. I hope kinput2 source code gives you better samples of using Wnn library functions. Again, good luck!
