The smart common input method platform (scim) is an input method (im) platform containing support for more than thirty languages (cjk and many european languages) for posix-style operating systems including linux and bsd. scim-bridge.el is a scim-bridge client for emacs. this program allows users on-the-spot style input with scim. the input statuses are individually kept for each buffer, and prefix-keys such as c-x and c-c can be used even if scim is active. so you can input various languages fast and comfortably by using it. this program is *not* a part of scim-bridge.
