Syntax

-FSIMM fsdevice_name=IMM-name1<, fsdevice_name=IMM-name2>...

You can specify the following values for IMM-name:

TTY | SASWUJT: provides an interface for /dev/tty. This IMM enables you to enter DBCS strings through a terminal emulator that has DBCS input capability.
PIPE | SASWUJP: provides a pipe interface. This interface forks the DBCS input server process. The default server name is saswujms , which uses the vendor-supplied MOTIF toolkit.

For example, to use the PIPE input method module for X11 drivers, you would specify:

-FSIMM X11=PIPE

Note: The server is specified by using the FSIMMOPT option. [cautionend]
