[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] How to extend Hildon Input Methods

Which does not work when you installed your bora scratchbox targets and 
sdk rootstraps manually because of pkg-config problems, see: 
http://rafb.net/p/Ta7ltB82.html

The tutorial mentions "libhildon-input-method-header-sdk-dev and 
libhildon-input-method-framework-header-sdk-dev packages" but the real 
name of the first package seems to be 
"libhildon-input-method-ui-header-sdk-dev".

Also, it would be nice to have more detailed documentation on key types 
and attributes usage.

For instance, the <key alpha="ALPHA" size="2">q</key> markup seems 
rather obscure to me, particularly the alpha="ALPHA" part.

Also, how do you define a modifier key ? And how do you specify tabs 
like the "abc" "ABC" "1!+" tabs on the thumb keyboard. In fact, having 
the xml versions of the .vkb files deployed on the device would really 
help understanding how to achieve the "abc/ABC click on the same tab 
changes the case" behavior. Is there any plan to make these .xml files 
available ?

Regards.
