Maliit Maliit provides a flexible and cross-platform input method framework. It has a plugin-based client-server architecture where applications act as clients and communicate with the Maliit server via input context plugins. The communication link currently uses D-Bus. Maliit is an open source framework (LGPL 2) with open source plugins (BSD). These are the Maliit reference plugins. Installing Qt 4.7 must be installed to build the Maliit reference plugins. At a terminal, run: qmake make make install Run qmake HELP=1 to get more information about build options. Running Plugins require a running maliit-server. Active and enabled plugins are controlled via GConf. The reference plugin is configured like so: gconftool-2 -s --type list --list-type string /maliit/onscreen/enabled "[libmaliit-keyboard-plugin.so,en_gb]" gconftool-2 -s --type list --list-type string /maliit/onscreen/active "[libmaliit-keyboard-plugin.so,en_gb]" There can be more than one enabled plugin, but only one can be active at a time.
