Terminal, impossible to type \ antislash #17057

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

Hello

I use Zed to prepare a postgresql course, and I use the terminal for many manipulations.

So I detected that I can't enter the \ (antislash) character in the terminal, and I have to enter it in the editor and copy/paste it in terminal... Annoying to make a \q for example ;-)

If I am at the bash level (not in psql), successively pressing \ and \ makes an ls

I've check settings>key bindings and settings>default key bindings I didn't detect anything suspect (I didn't change the default values)

Of cours, i'ts possible to make a \ in the classic terminal, in the VSC terminal, and in other applications in general

Environment

MacBook Air MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1 (23E224)

To obtain \ a need to use shift+option+/

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help explain present your vision of the feature

In zed can you open the command palette (cmd-shift-p) and then 'copy system specs into clipboard' and edit your issue description to include that info (zed version number, etc).

What's your keyboard layout? (e.g. something other than US English?)

I am facing the same problem on MacOS.

\ / | and all those keys stopped working within the terminal.

Running some scripts which ask for user input are printing control chars/garbage into the input field (without typing anything) like:

Project name (lala): ]11;rgb:3b3b/4141/4d4d\ Sorry, ']11;rgb:3b3b/4141/4d4d\' is not a valid Project name: project names may only contain alphanumerics, hyphens, underscores, and periods

Using: Zed 0.150.4 German keyboard layout

Same problem here with a French keyboard on a Mac, I can't type the [ character in the terminal with the usual option-shift-( key combination.

Try to add in config/zed/settings.json

{
  "terminal": {
    "option_as_meta": false
  }
}

This solved my issue.
