Left Alt + Shift + 0: Cannot change language in Emacs/VcXsrv
0
I'm running the Emacs text editor using WSL + VcXsrv on Windows 10. When typing texts, I need to change the language all the time, using combinations such as:
Left Alt + Shift + 0: German
Left Alt + Shift + 1: English
Left Alt + Shift + 2: Spanish
Left Alt + Shift + 3: Greek
How do I make these key combinations work in VcXsrv?

Configured them in Windows. I now realized that one needs to configure input languages separately for the XvXsrv, like for an XServer running under Linux. Installing Windows Emacs via Chocolatey now...

Found this. Windows side language will not applied in WSL GUI programs.

@Biswapriyo Thanks, but this is not what I'm looking for. I want to have the language that I select in Windows to be available in Emacs/VcXsrv. That this is not possible would I think be the correct answer, simple.

@Biswapriyo On second thought, the method of changing the input method directly in Emacs usingtoggle-input-methodas linked by you is possibly the best workaround. Consider turning it into an answer. (specific to Emacs, of course, but that's what I'm using)
