MANAGEMENT OF INPUT METHODS

摘要

Embodiments of a system and method are disclosed concerning the management of a plurality input methods on a computer. The input method may define how input from a human interface device is interpreted by a receiving application. The method may include locating one or more input method factors. The method may also include determining a numerical score of the input method factor using a metric of the input method factor and a weight of the factor. The method may also include ranking an input method factor using the determined numerical score of the input method factor. The method may also include presenting a user selection interface that lists the plurality of input methods as a function of the ranking.

1. A computer-implemented method of ranking a plurality of input methods, that defines how input from a human interface device is interpreted by a receiving application, comprising:
locating one or more input method factors; determining a numerical score of the input method factor using a metric of the input method factor and a weight of the factor; ranking an input method factor using the determined numerical score of the input method factor; and presenting a user selection interface that lists the plurality of input methods as a function of the ranking.
