Software to type Vietnamese

Because Windows doesn’t support the easy way to type Vietnamese, so we have to use software to do that. Its name is Unikey. Bellow is its description:

UniKey is a very small and easy-to-use Vietnamese keyboard for Windows.
UniKey is free and open-source. You can freely use UniKey under the terms of The GNU General Public License. See screenshots of UniKey.

UniKey supports:

Many character sets/encodings:
- TCVN3 (ABC), VN Unicode, VIQR
- VNI, VPS, VISCII
- BK HCM1, BK HCM2, Vietware-X, Vietware-F.
- Unicode UTF-8, Unicode NCR Decimal/Hexadecimal – for Web editors.
All 3 popular input methods: TELEX, VNI, and VIQR.
All Win32 platforms: Windows 9x/ME, Windows NT/2000/XP.
UniKey is very small (~ 120 KB), does not need any additional library.
No installation is required.
