- Input methods are an operating system component that allows any data, such as
- keyboard strokes or mouse movements, to be received as input. In this way
- users can enter characters and symbols not found on their input devices.
- Using an input method is obligatory for any language that has more graphemes
- than there are keys on the keyboard.
