Cannot input languages such as Chinese and Japanese.

[movsb]

Tested both languages on Firefox, Chrome and Safari, on MacOS, none will work.

Possible reason: handleInput cannot deal with insertCompositionText for event.inputType.

what happens when you try to enter Chinese or Japanese? How can I reproduce this?

It shouldn't really have anything to do with handleInput, the input handling is handled by the browser by setting contentEditable to true on the editor element; handleInput just processes the already entered content...

If you are on MacOS, it's very simple to have an input method enabled, just goto the Keyboard settings and Add Input Methds, such as Chinese Simplfied.

What happens when I try to enter Chinese?

• For Firefox:

  Press f(or any) and then hit Space to emit the first candidate, the content will be f\n instead of a Chinese word, and the console logs Uncaught TypeError: this.lineElements[e].removeAttribute is not a function..

• For Safari:

  Press f, it produces content ff, but the composition text is ok, If I hit Space now, the result will be ff我 (any Chinese word)，and if I repeat, ff我ff我ff我。

• For Chrome:

  The same keystrokes above produce f f f, instead of a Chinese word, a space will be inserted.

If that's not very clear though, I can capture some videos for you.

Not tested on Windows. For Safari on iPhone, things get worse.

Thanks. That should hopefully help me reproduce.

This should be fixed in the latest release with PR #60. Let me know if you are still running into this.

Great, I see it fixed 🤘.

I run into another issue on pasting, see #61 .
