bug(linux): Reordering of output with Khmer Angkor keyboard doesn't work correct in gnome-terminal

Open ermshiperete opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

With Khmer Angkor keyboard, type xEjmr. This should result in ខ្មែរ being displayed because the keyboard brings the characters in the right order. However, with gnome-terminal this doesn't work.

gnome-terminal in Ubuntu 22.04, X11 mode Keyman 16.x with output reordering PR #7079 applied.

gnome-terminal doesn't support surrounding text, so we have to use backspace to delete the characters. The Khmer character sequence contains a diacritic character and gnome-terminal deletes the entire cluster.

Test failures for TEST_TERMINAL_HI and TEST_TERMINAL_KO in #7079 have the same reason.
