WezTerm version

20240203-110809-5046fc22

Did you try the latest nightly build to see if the issue is better (or worse!) than your current version?

Yes, and I updated the version box above to show the version of the nightly that I tried

Describe the bug

Current behavior When i open neovim in wezterm, the Insert key is not working, not switching between modes. Also, if i press any other character, it automatically switches to insert mode and i can start typing.

Correct behavior I have iterm and when i open neovim on it, if i press the insert key, then it switches between modes, and if i am in normal mode and i type any other character, i cannot start typing unless i am on insert mode from the Insert key.

To Reproduce

For Insert key issue

Open wezterm
Open neovim
Neovim should be in normla mode
Press Insert Key
Nothing happens.

For any other character issue

Open wezterm
Open neovim
Neovim should be in normla mode
Press any character. 'a' for example
It automatically switches to insert mode and i can start typing.

Configuration

no config

Expected Behavior

For Insert key issue

Open wezterm
Open neovim
Neovim should be in normla mode
Press Insert Key
It should switch between modes.

For any other character issue

Open wezterm
Open neovim
Neovim should be in normla mode
Press any character. 'a' for example
It should not switch modes and should not allow me to type, unless another mode was already set by the insert key.

Maybe it because the insert key isn't bound by default in neovim to enter insert mode (but the a key (like the i key) is).

Have you tried another terminal before saying it's an issue with wezterm?

Oh yes sorry I didn't see it.

I just tested on a Linux system and it indeed works as you'd expect, and neovim detects the key as <Insert>.

Can you try in neovim (in command or insert mode) with Ctrl-v (not cmd-v) followed by the insert key? Neovim should print you what it understood of the key, does it also give you <Insert> ? If it does, you could check if your distribution has a disabling mapping for it using :nmap <Insert>
