@skyjake : I've found something that, in my opinion is a bug in Lagrange. I sometimes use Ibus's table input system to write certain unicode characters (specifically the UCSUR toki pona characters). For some reason, in the submission box, this system doesn't seem to work. Given that it even works in things like xterm, I'm a bit curious about why this isn't working. Is it because oof the custom widgets, perhaps? The workaround I've found is to write the text I want to in something else, and paste it in. A bit annoying, but given how rarely I'd be writing this in the submission box, it is workable.

What I'm using is the font and ibus table described in https://github.com/Id405/sitelen-pona-ucsur-guide#linux . I had to install ibus-table to get the needed command, but I also have the ibus and ibus-gtk (and ibus-gtk3) packages installed (I'm on devuan, a systemd-less debian fork). I expect that you can try it with any ibus table (there seem to be quite a few available in the apt repo). ยท 2 years ago

This functionality is SDL's responsibility. It handles the low-level keyboard input events and deals with the user's IME.
Perhaps there are some SDL settings that can be tweaked to make it work better. What specifically should I install to try out what you're trying to do? ยท 2 years ago
