Crate im_switch 

A cross-platform input method switcher.

im-switch provides a unified API to query, switch, and list input methods across Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Platform support

Platform	Backend
Linux	fcitx5 (D-Bus), ibus (CLI) — auto-detected at runtime
Windows	Win32 API (keyboard layout + IME on/off control)
macOS	Carbon TIS API

Quick start

use im_switch::{get_input_method, set_input_method, list_input_methods};

// Get the current input method
let im = get_input_method().unwrap();
println!("Current IM: {im}");

// List available input methods
let methods = list_input_methods().unwrap();
for m in &methods {
    println!("  {m}");
}

// Restore a saved input method
set_input_method(&im).unwrap();
