Summary:Stock keyboard
Description:
Despite the splash screen, there is no gesture (aka “swype”) typing in 4.4.2.
There is only limited amount of monochrome Emoji characters,
though they may be supplemented if you have another keyboard installed.
Other recent differences include: white hinting, quicker entry of user-defined
words, better suggestions in landscape and layout changes.

The current version comes with English, Spanish, Russian, PT-Brazilian, Italian,
German, French, dictionaries; there are more language word lists
in the repository but they'd need to be compiled. There is no gesture typing
with this version either.

WARNING:

If your ROM does com with com.android.inputmethod.latin package, you cannot
update to this one directly. Either use FDroid as a system app or remove the
old package by hand and then install this one.

ONLY DO THIS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. THIS MIGHT BRICK YOUR DEVICE!

Maintainer Notes:
Note that, like other AOSP apps, there are now special tags with 'sdk' in them;
not sure what the difference is.

Todo for next versions:
  Change authority string in res/values/dictionary-pack.xml,  à la
    android:authorities="@string/authority" to allow for installation on top of other apps.
  Split up packages based on user dictionaries.
