What this project is:
Make tmux a fcitx client. It allows you to type with input method without using graphical display server. For example, you can type with Fcitx under TTY.
What this project is not:
Display fcitx state in tmux. That is not the goal of this project.
Dependenices:
- Need fcitx5 to compile
- Need dbus-send to run.
Compile:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
cmake --build .
sudo cmake --install .
Usage: Add following content to ~/.tmux.conf
run /usr/share/tmux-fcitx5/fcitx5.tmux
Known issue:
Not all key combinition works, specially for modifier key only hotkey and key release event due to Tmux bind-key limitation. Trigger key (Control+Space) repeatedly press functionality does not work properly. So you will see Control+space enumerate over different input method if you have more than one input method configured.
Keyboard layout related feature won't work too, which is expected.
