HIME-SETUP(1) hime input method platform HIME-SETUP(1)

NAME

hime-setup - configuration tools of hime

SYNOPSIS

hime-setup

DESCRIPTION

hime-setup is the default configuration tool of hime. Another configuring method is writing conffiles in $HOME/.config/hime/config. See CONFFILES section for further information.

CONFFILES

Those conffiles below will be created automatically by hime-setup, except hime-bell-volume and hime-sound-play-overlap.
If you want to write conffiles by yourself, please make sure you have the config directory:

mkdir -p $HOME/.config/hime/config
After that, you may try:

echo zo > $HOME/.config/hime/config/phonetic-keyboard
Thus you make a phonetic-keyboard file with its content zo, which means you select the standard style with 1234 selection method.
All available conffiles are listed, and default options are showed bold.
