SCIM (Smart Common Input Method) is an input method (IM) platform.
 .
 This package provides the socket modules for SCIM. SCIM can use a local or
 inet socket as the front end and connect to the configuration and IM engine
 modules. Then other computers and/or environments can share these input
 methods by connecting to the socket with socket IM engine module and socket
 configure module.
