Description

https://github.com/mike-fabian/ibus-table

Ibus-table is a framework for table based input methods using IBus.
Ibus-table is mostly used for Chinese, table based input methods like ZhengMa, WuBi, ErBi, CangJie and so on.
But it can be used for other languages as well and some tables are available for other languages.

Build and install instructions: http://kaio.net/ibus-table/development.html

(I might be able to package this myself at some point in the future, but since i don't have any experience whatsoever with that i'd need to invest some hours into learning how to do it right. Thus, I'm putting this out here in case someone might get to it before me.)
