#200 Korean implementation is not correct

The Korean implementation in the table module does not work correctly. For example, "rksk" should be "가나", but this implementation inputs "간ㅏ". This implementation must be written without knowing how the Hangul keyboard works.

People get confused by this buggy Korean implementation. I know there is scim-hangul and it works well. But new users won't notice that. If there's no plan to fix this, how about just removing it from the table backend?

I am sorry about the problem you reported. Unfortunately, I don't speak or read Korean. Is this problem still present in 1.4.13?

Yes. Note that it's a bug in scim-tables, which has not been updated for years.

If I insert "rksk" and "가나" in the Korean table, is the problem then over?

You probably used scim-hangul not scim-tables.

I was looking to:
http://scim.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/scim/scim-tables/trunk/tables/ko/Hangul.txt.in?view=log

It seems for me that I can insert the text here.

I can easily reproduce it.

It doesn't work, has never worked, and should not work with that table. You are definitely using different Hangul input backend.

Again, I proposed to remove it, rather than fix.

it. It is broken and no one with knowledge intends to fix and maintain it. And there is an working alternative (scim-hangul).

scim-hangul has been removed from Debian as being dead upstream. I can't even find the home page.

scim-hangul is a subproject of SCIM.
You can see the source code here:

scim development is now at https://github.com/scim-im and there is no scim-hangul ported over. Would you be available to help out?
