Documentation

Plover output plugin for linux using uinput

If you experience any problems, feel free to open an issue, pull request or send a message on discord (lilleaila)! Before asking for help, please check if the plugin is enabled in the settings..

Setup

Add your user to the input group, and add this udev rule:

KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="input", MODE="0660", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput"

Set the PLOVER_UINPUT_LAYOUT environment variable to your two-letter xkb keyboard layout, for example us, no or fr. This is not necessary if you're using a US keyboard.

Unicode characters

If you want to use unicode characters, either iBus or fcitx5 has to be installed. You should also increase the key press delay in plover if some characters do not output properly.
