Common vietnamese input method Jul 23, 2010

The most widely used Vietnamese input software is Unikey (www.unikey.org) it is free, lightweight and powerful. There are some other softwares but less popular (vietkey, winvnkey,...)

For Vietnamese there are 3 preferable input method: Telex (most popular), VNI (2nd), VIQR (3rd). The one you mentioned is created by Microsoft, which is quite similar to VNI method, is not as popular as the former 3.
