Drop Unicode keysym workaround #30

Closed emersion closed 3 years ago

emersion commented 3 years ago

I tried a lot of Unicode characters (e.g. "🐸") and it doesn't seem like libxkbcommon ever returns something beginning with "0x". It always returns the "U" string we expect.

Additionally, the workaround is wrong: "U" keysyms need a Unicode code-point value, but we were using the keysym raw value instead. These are not equal (try for yourself by removing the "if" condition).

Right, "shouldn't generally happen". I am not quite sure where this came from, likely originated from the cavalier way that earlier versions handled unicode and keysyms.
