Key combinations such as graphic accents (á. ã. à) don't work when a key listener is enabled

Which OS are you using? Windows, Linux, Mac OS?

As far as I know this should be working correctly but I don't have these letters in my locale. Please let me know what language and what keys I need to press to duplicate this issue.

@kwhat This doesn't work for me either. Ironically the system-hook library has the same bug. You can reproduce it by e.g. trying to write a backtick by pressing Shift + ´ and then the space key. This should be on your keyboard as well.

Expected behavior: ` is printed correctly.

Actual behavior: (blank is printed)

If there is any solution it would be much appreciated. This bug is annoying since it globally affects the computer while the hook is enabled.

Which OS? Windows?

What language / locale? I am using US/English on Windows and I don't have a ´ key. The closest I have is ' and the ~ key.

Maybe you can install another keyboard layout: image See the key on the top right with ´ and `.

Is there any (planned) progress?

This is planned to be fixed but I've been slammed with other work for a while now.
