<para>
<command>gtk-query-immodules-3.0</command> collects information about loadable
input method modules for GTK+ and writes it to the default cache file
location, or to <filename>stdout</filename>.
</para>
<para>
If called without arguments, it looks for modules in the GTK+ input method
module path.
</para>
<para>
If called with arguments, it looks for the specified modules. The arguments
may be absolute or relative paths.
</para>

<para>
Normally, the output of <command>gtk-query-immodules-3.0</command> is written
to <filename><replaceable>libdir</replaceable>/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules.cache</filename>,
where GTK+ looks for it by default. If it is written to some other location,
the <envar>GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE</envar> environment variable can be set to point
GTK+ at the file.
