I wrote in some time ago about multibyte input not working the way I
would expect it to on Mac OS X. I have a little bit of further
information on this front. Basically if I build from CVS with "--
disable-multibye" then my OS native keyboard entry method for
multibyte input works, but the zsh binary doesn't work well with
trying to do something like delete a character from the current
command line, it will work but sometimes the display gets off by a
character or two. If I use "--enable-multibyte" then everything
works great for editing but zsh seems to be grabbing characters at
such a low level that my OS native keyboard entry method doesn't
work. Both work in modern bash (3.2) but I like zsh more than I like
bash.
Is there a way to get just the multibyte display and editing
(arrowing, deleting, etc.) of multibyte characters, but to bypass the
new zsh entry method and just let me use my OS entry method?
Oh yeah, I tried what several people suggested before about zle and
mapping keys, unfortunately the OS isn't sending the raw keys for the
keys I am trying to send, so while that would be less than ideal
anyway I have yet to get it to work. Using the real input method for
my keyboard layout (option-6 then e for ê) would be the best solution
in my opinion.
Thanks,
Jordan
