Fcitx is an input method framework with extension support, which provides an interface for entering characters of different scripts in applications using a variety of mapping systems.

It offers a pleasant and modern experience, with intuitive graphical configuration tools and customizable skins and mapping tables. It is highly modularized and extensible, with GTK+ 2/3 and Qt5 IM Modules, support for UIs based on Fbterm, pure Xlib, GTK+, or KDE, and a developer-friendly API.

This package provides the KIMPanel protocol module of Fcitx, which implements a protocol to talk with D-Bus and is usually needed by the plugin for environments like KIMPanel/(Q)KIMToy, GNOME Shell and Unity.
