IBus

Main documentation of IBUS API is at:

• https://ibus.github.io/docs/ibus-1.5/index.html

However, most of the ibus code here is based on the following C++ adaptation.

• https://github.com/epico/ibus-libzhuyin

The CMakeLists based install is adopted from https://github.com/varnamproject/libvarnam-ibus

• Gnome has first-class support for iBus now, which makes bunch of commands like ibus-setup etc pointless. I have discovered inorder to get entries to refresh on the GNOME UI I have to restart a session, which is a bit cumbersome. This is not required, restarting deamon seems to be enough.
