“Uim is a multilingual input method library, whose goal is to provide a secure and useful input method for all languages. Uim works in many environments, including of course general desktop systems such as GNOME or KDE. It also supports Linux Zaurus, Mac OS X.” Version 1.0.0 has been released.

Uim is a library only. It has to be used with a frontend (e.g SCIM).
