Aside from the benefits of having the IMEs more modularized and whatnot, what would be the user-visible dis/advantages of iBus versus existing SCIM usage? For example, I use SCIM/Anthy to input Japanese text on a frequent basis (using the Rõmaji method); and one thing I love about it is that it is very easy to toggle between English and Japanese with its default keyboard shortcut (ctrl + space). Is switching back and forth as easy with iBus? (And if not by default, is that option at least readily available?) Another excellent feature of SCIM, for me, is the handwriting-recognition features provided through Tomoe. This helps me *immensely* in my study of Kanji characters since it allows me to search for the character in StarDict or on Wiktionary when I do not yet know its readings (and thus could not enter it with the phonetic Anthy/Rõmaji method) as I can simply draw it on my Wacom tablet and then have it inserted into the search window. Does iBus have similar capabilities or a Tomoe plugin of its own? Thanks. :) -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 「ゴードン・ピーター」
