SYNOPSIS

       gcin [-h|-v|--version]

DESCRIPTION

       gcin is an input method(IM) server, which focused mainly on Traditional
       Chinese. It is also very useful for Simplified Chinese,  Japanese,  and
       many  other  languages.  IM  table  format of gcin is almost as same as
       those of scim and xcin. Users may append their IMs to gcin very easily.
       The "g" of gcin means that it features a better GTK+ user interface.
