           Summary: m17n lilbrary 1.3 features should be supported

m17n library (and db) 1.3 supports input method description and icons.
Since it improves usability with low support cost, we should do it on uim 1.1.0.
Anyone?

- short description for uim
  minput_get_description() returns the full description of each *.mim files.
  Their first line is a summary and seems to be used for short-desc of uim after
  stripped optional period (and of course newline and the rest).

- input method icons
  m17n-db 1.3 has the icons for each input method. Since the filename is
  identical to corresponding input method ID, uim can use them as follows.

    $(uim-pkgdatadir)/pixmaps/m17n-ja-tcode.png ->
$(m17n-db-datadir)/m17n/icons/ja-tcode.png

  It should be symlinks to follow updates of original icons. Adding
  install-time $(LN_S) handling with uim-sh and m17nlib.scm in
  pixmaps/Makefile.am will help filename handlings.
