InputSourceSelector

A utility program to manipulate Input Sources on Mac OS X.

This is a rewrite of minoki/InputSourceSelector in Swift with addition of a few useful features: testing for a layout ID and displaying the language code for the input method.

For a more robust solution that works aroung MacOs errors, check out laishulu/macism.

$ cd InputSourceSelector
$ make
$ copy InputSourceSelector /usr/local/bin/    # or another directory in $PATH
