Description Mikhail Zabaluev 2004-01-29 07:07:25 UTC
I use a Russian keyboard layout pretty often in a terminal, but I want
Ctrl-A, Ctrl-E etc. to keep their usual bindings even when a Russian layout
is selected. Which means those should translate, respectively, to ^A, ^E,
etc. in the terminal input. Xterm and rxvt got that right.
Comment 1 Mariano Suárez-Alvarez 2004-01-30 23:13:21 UTC
This is done in vte_terminal_key_press, right Nalin?
Comment 2 Nalin Dahyabhai 2004-02-02 18:01:50 UTC
Yes.  Most of the heavy lifting for regular keys is done in
_vte_keymap_map, though.  Does the X server give the widget different
events in this case, or is something else causing a different sequence
to be sent to the PTY?

Just for the record, I fixed this a year ago, and logged bug 126956.  Seems that
it hasn't been looked at since. Please test and review my patch. Thanks for
bringing it up again!
