gtk4-query-immodules — Input method module registration utility

Synopsis

gtk4-query-immodules [--update-cache] [MODULE...]

Description

gtk4-query-immodules collects information about loadable input method modules for GTK+ and writes it to the default cache file location, or to stdout.

If called without arguments, it looks for modules in the GTK+ input method module path.

If called with arguments, it looks for the specified modules. The arguments may be absolute or relative paths.

Normally, the output of gtk4-query-immodules is written to libdir/gtk-4.0/4.0.0/immodules.cache, where GTK+ looks for it by default. If it is written to some other location, the GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE environment variable can be set to point GTK+ at the file.

Options

--update-cache

Write the output to the default cache location instead of stdout

Files

libdir/gtk-4.0/4.0.0/immodules.cache

The default im cache file used by GTK+ applications

Environment

GTK_PATH

GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE
