Your application can capture and respond to keyboard input and
can manipulate an IME to let users type non-ASCII text characters
in multibyte languages. Note that this section assumes that you
are already familiar with the ActionScript 3.0 event model. For
more information, see
Handling events
.
For information on discovering what kind of keyboard support
is available (such as physical, virtual, alphanumeric, or 12-button
numeric) during runtime, see
Discovering input types
.
An Input Method Editor (IME) allows users to type complex characters
and symbols using a standard keyboard. You can use the IME classes
to enable users to take advantage of their system IME in your applications.
