<div class="refsect1">
<a name="id-1.7.6.5"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>
<span class="command"><strong>gtk-query-immodules-3.0</strong></span> collects information about loadable
input method modules for GTK+ and writes it to the default cache file
location, or to <code class="filename">stdout</code>.
</p>
<p>
If called without arguments, it looks for modules in the GTK+ input method
module path.
</p>
<p>
If called with arguments, it looks for the specified modules. The arguments
may be absolute or relative paths.
</p>
<p>
Normally, the output of <span class="command"><strong>gtk-query-immodules-3.0</strong></span> is written
to <code class="filename"><em class="replaceable"><code>libdir</code></em>/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules.cache</code>,
where GTK+ looks for it by default. If it is written to some other location,
the <code class="envar">GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE</code> environment variable can be set to point
GTK+ at the file.
