Hello

I am looking for a multi lingual virtual keyboard.

I tried different virtual keyboard but none of them reach my specifications
- A virtual keyboard easy to access from KDE
- Should handle languages such as Korean (I try to learn it). It need an Hangul layout.
- I should not have to change the language for the full session environment. I can understand French, English but not the Korean yet (I still try to learn it).
I just want to type in Korean but with my KDE still in French: Possibility to change the layout from the virtual keyboard itself

I tried some such as gok, florence, xvkbd... and of course the KDE one.
Some keyboards should handle a different layout when the system is set to another language.
The closest virtual keyboard was able to handle multiples Indian languages.

It should be a great improvement for many learner who try to type languages not using an occidental alphabet.
It can also improve password security. Eg: from the login screen, access the virtual keyboard and type random characters from 2 exotics languages. I am sure the KDE password can cope with UTF8.

Maybe, I should have spent more time on it (numerous hours in total) and this ideal virtual keyboard already exist. I will welcome any help.

Nevertheless, it will be a great improvement fro KDE (Microsoft 7 ultimate got it already).
