Description : An example of how to use the ibus-hs package
Maintainer  : ongy
Stability   : testing
Portability : Linux

This module provides an example of how to use the ibus-hs package.

This is only usefull if you have ibus installed and active on your 
system.

This module will display the current global engine and provides
event driven updates.
For better usability the names returned by ibus can be remapped
to something more readable by the mapping given to the creation
function.
