Issue with unicode and extra spaces

Open chosig opened this issue 12 years ago • 3 comments

When you write something that is past Z it adds an extra space to the input line, if you delete that you end up with random letters removed -- but it sends the string as it should

"Björn köper smör på lördag" becomes "Bjö rn kö per smö r på lö rdag"

Which branch?

I think configuring you client to send ^H instead of ^? for backspace will fix this problem for the most part. There are some related bug that are more severe, but that should hande that.

Just added some changes that might help somewhat with this. In addition, I've found configuring my terminal to send ^H instead of ^? fixes a fair amount of issues with non-ASCII characters.

The issue has to do with the fact that UTF8 characters can be made-up of multiple bytes. It's something where most computer programs and languages get something wrong with the implementation. Working on getting it as good as I can.
