Hi,
I am trying to use the new insert-unicode-char in a vi emulation - insetmode,
using
autoload insert-unicode-char
zle -N insert-unicode-char
bindkey -v '^y' insert-unicode-char
It works, accept I cannot enter two unicode characters in a row. After I have
finished entering the first one by entering its closing ^Y, the opening ^Y of
the second character just beeps. I can start another insert-unicode-char
sequence only after typing at least one more character (of course, a
"solution" is to hit any character and to follow it by a backspace ;-)).
I am using the up-to-date zsh-4.3.0-dev-1 (ChangeLog revision 1.2939,
insert-unicode-char revision 1.3) on a RedHat 9 and system.
Best,
Zvi.

It's quite possible that the multiple libiconvs are significant, since it works OK on Solaris 8 here. The error message and the configuration suggest this call is failing: cd = iconv_open(nl_langinfo(CODESET), "UCS-4BE"); although it's possible it's not using the iconv code at all for some reason, which would happen if neither HAVE_ICONV nor any of the alternative conversion types were available. The dependence on the shared library might conceivably be indirect. We don't have a Solaris 9 for trying out multibyte mode on, but I know that Solaris 8 doesn't set __STDC_ISO_10646__, which we're using to detect the capabilities automatically---it saves a lot of configuration probing. It sounds like it probably isn't set in your case, otherwise the shell would use wctomb() rather than iconv, avoiding the other problem. With enough automated tests for things like the effect of wctomb() we could probably avoid all this, but that's hard work. -- Peter Stephenson <pws@csr.com> Software Engineer CSR PLC, Churchill House, Cambridge Business Park, Cowley Road Cambridge, CB4 0WZ, UK Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 This message has been scanned for viruses by BlackSpider MailControl - www.blackspider.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Yes, that was an oversight. It needs an extra flag to check that it's really on the second stage rather than the first, otherwise it gets confused by back-to-back uses.
