Hey, thanks for the tip!

I've read the source codes for scim_input_pad, and I still got some
questions.
Here's what I've understood though:

1.) scim_input_pad still basically controls scim via simulated keypresses,
but it now sends it directly to the IMEngineFactory via
HelperAgent.send_key_events, or the other case, directly to the InputContext
via HelperAgent.commit_string..  
2.) HelperAgent needs to open a connection to scim before doing #1.
3.) No other prerequisites to do the above, just a couple of signal handling
assignments, and that GIOChannel which I'm still trying to figure out what
it does.

My questions:
1.) HelperAgent (scim_input_pad) is run via scim panel, thru the run()
function, can it be run independent of a scim module?  Like within my
application?
2.) I'd still need to consult the config for the hotkeys to turn on
scim-anthy (I need japanese kana-to-kanji conversion), is there a way to
directly turn on scim-anthy via function bypassing hotkeys?  or hotkeys is
the best recommended way?
3.) How to initiate a kana-to-kanji conversion? Like doing the NextCandidate
(Space) event...?

Thanks again,
Dexter
