Multilingual input methods don't work #352

Closed m00natic closed 9 years ago

m00natic commented 9 years ago

Using ergoemacs-mode-20150814.1823 with either emacs-24.5 or today's trunk (abd838e). After M-x ergoemacs-clean:

Command "/usr/bin/emacs-24.5" --debug-init -Q -L "/home/akotlarski/.emacs.d/elpa/ergoemacs-mode-20150814.1823/" --load="ergoemacs-mode" --load="ergoemacs-test" --eval "(progn (require 'elp) (setq debug-on-error t) (elp-instrument-package (symbol-name 'ergoemacs-)) (ergoemacs-mode 1) (run-with-idle-timer 0.1 nil 'elp-results))"

Ergoemacs-mode turned ON (colemak:standard).

C-\ (M-x toggle-input-method)

Now probably due to my locale I have bulgarian-bds as default-input-method without explicit settings. However, Latin characters are inputed as before.

I cannot figure out how to test this. I don't have bulgarian-bds as an input method. In fact I don't have any input methods.

m00natic commented 9 years ago

In the cleaned state, here's what you can do:

M-: (setq default-input-method nil)

now

C-\

will ask you for input method, tab-completion should work, choose greek for example and press ab. The expected result is to see alpha and beta characters, but in this case latin ab would come out.

I really can't reproduce; for some reason. But I can read documentation. Maybe the above fix works. I got this idea by reading:

http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Reading-One-Event.html#Reading-One-Event

mattfidler commented 9 years ago

I don't have a list of any input methods available to me... Something must be wrong about my emacs installation, or the input methods don't work in windows?

mattfidler commented 9 years ago

Never mind. I did get the input method working in emacs 24.5, and it seems to work for me. Let me know if it works for you.

mattfidler commented 9 years ago

The first character seems to be in latin and the rest seem to be in greek. Is that expected?

m00natic commented 9 years ago

Maybe your font somehow picks latin because missing alpha. Anyway, works now, thank you!

mattfidler commented 9 years ago

This should now also be fixed for people who use different keyboard layouts with non-latin punctuation. (At least I think).

I added a test and ergoemacs-mode now passes this test. If you have any other problems please let me know.
