Input Method Support on the Oracle Solaris OS

Oracle Solaris has been adopting Internet Intranet Input Method Framework (IIIMF) to support multiple language input or scripts. The IIIM server starts per user in all the UTF-8 locales and Asian locales. It serves both IIIM and XIM (X input method) clients.

In European UTF-8 locales, Compose key input or dead key input is also available. For more information, see Appendix A, Compose and Dead Key Input.
