Hi all,
It appears to me that the dev-4 version is not supporting multibyte
characters (Japanese) as good as the previous developmental
versions. In dev-4, Japanese characters in tab completion lists are
not displayed properly (I see a bunch of numbers). I hope the
situation gets better before the release of 4.3.1.

I see similar problems in Hebrew. The tab completion doesn't work on non-ascii
characters. In dev-3 it was ok, atleast until 10 February. I am trying to put
my finger on the patch which made this happen.

Are you using UTF-8 locales?

Hi Clint,
Yes, I have,
LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
Tab completions were working up to dev-3.

Can you show us some of the output? That should reveal what byte values
zsh is now escaping. There was some code added in dev-4 that escapes
invalid characters (using a $'\123' idiom) earlier in the handling of
completed values, but that shouldn't affect any extra characters that
dev-3 wasn't already escaping in the display of the completion items.
Both algorithms are using the same validity check on the strings, the
only significant difference is that one works on on unmetafied strings
(the new one) and the other works on metafied strings (the old one).

Ack! That's actually the problem. The new algorithm is supposed to be
operating on metafied strings. I'll fix this.

I've committed a fix to CVS. Anyone who'd like to manually patch it
into their source to try it out can grab it from here:
http://opencoder.net/metafied.patch
Thanks for reporting this problem!

I didn't see the fix in the CVS, but I manually grabbed the patch and
applied it. It works! Thanks a lot.

Hi Wayne,
Thanks for the patch. Tab completion is now working nicely.
