# ibus input method for [bqn]

now you can write in any window with the same [map] as the web demo!!! wow

## requirements

- ibus (i dont remember how to actually set it up sorry)
- ibus-table

## installation

- `sudo make install`[^sudo]
- `ibus-daemon --daemonize --replace`
- add the input method in ibus and have fun

## deficiencies

- ibus-table doesn't seem to allow a map for `\␠`, so `‿` is mapped to `\n` instead
- it assumes a US base layout so things will be in the wrong place otherwise
- the popup is kind of distracting
- if you type `\7` it explodes and you have to reselect the layout before it
  starts working again. literally no idea why

## additions

| char | input | char | input |
|------|-------|------|-------|
| ⇒    | `\|`  | ⦂    | `\Y`  |

## unused keys

\C, \D, \J, \N, \U, \y, (\7 but [it breaks](#deficiencies))


[^sudo]: i tried a few places in `~/.local` and stuff but none of them seemed to
         work. if you know where to put user-local tables hmu
