 read man page doc/fbterm.1 for usage help.
INPUT METHOD
 Instead of adding input method directly in FbTerm, a client-server based input method framework is designed to do 
this work. FbTerm acts as a client, standalone IM program as a server, and they run in seperated processes.
 As a normal IM user, please visit FbTerm's homepage (http://code.google.com/p/fbterm/) to check current available IM 
programs. If you want to develope a new IM program for FbTerm, there is a IM example in im/ directory, which help you to 
understand IM architecture and provide some base sources to simplify the development.
