Subject: Re: PATCH: multibyte FAQ (MacOS X) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I'm just a user (not a worker) of zsh but want to comment on the mulibyte support on MacOS X.

So "./configure; make" gives a zsh without multibyte support, although it supports "\u....". If configured with --enable-mulibyte, then I get a zsh which supports multibyte relatively well, but at least two problems remain; (1) "\u...." (and so insert-composed-char and insert-unicode-char) doesn't work. This can be fixed by a patch proposed in 22085. (2) In MacOS X, the standard file system is HFS+ which stores filenames in Unicode but in fully decomposed form. This means the filename returned by the completion is also in decomposed form; the filename is displayed correctly, but it can't be edited correctly. And if I go up/down in the history stack the prompt is destroyed. I can test only on 10.4.3 but guess the situation is the same in 10.3.x/10.4.x.
