Hi,

Please join the nvda-dev-asia list (if you have not already):
http://lists.nvaccess.org/listinfo/nvda-dev/asia

Discussion about the inputMethods branch happens there. Please test with the inputMethods branch and let me know on that list whether it improves anything for your language. If not, then I will need to have some further discussions with you in order to work out how to test this kind of input so that support for it can be improved.

Thanks
Mick

Hi folks,
Korean beta testing is going well - people report that the interface is
usable. However, the Korean forum members raised some concerns with input
processing and processing of Hanja (Chinese characters in Korean):
Issue: when typing in Korean, input announcement by character doesn't work,
although announcing input by words and command keys works as expected. I
think this is the matter of editing character descriptions file.
Concern: Hanja processing in Korean should be implemented Korean uses about
1800 regular Chinese characters, and including variant symbols, the number
of Hanja characters becomes over 25000. Also, there were some suggestions to
include Korean as one of the input methods branch mostly because of special
character inputs required (Korean uses non-Latin script) and because of
special uses of Chinese character keyboard input (on Korean keyboards, the
right CTRL key usually acts as Hanja input toggle).
Thanks for your considerations.
Cheers,
Joseph
