Re: [Texmacs-dev] patch: make input methods work in Qt-TeXmacs

Thanks for the details.

I think that a better implementation of inputMethodEvent would be the following:


void
QTMWidget::inputMethodEvent (QInputMethodEvent* event) {
  QString const & commit_string = event->commitString();
  if (!commit_string.isEmpty()) {
    int key = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < commit_string.size(); ++i) {
      QKeyEvent ev(QEvent::KeyPress, key, Qt::NoModifier, commit_string[i]);
      keyPressEvent(&ev);
    }
  }
  event->accept();
}  


Could you be so nice to test if it is OK for you?

Actually I have some problems on my system with inputMethod. If I type `+a+b then I obtain àab and not àb as I expect. In this case the inputMethod handler is activated by the first dead key but apparently spourious keypresses are generated AFTER the inputMethodEvent has been handled and it seems to me a bug with QT (which I cannot reproduce on Linux). If you have a Mac, could you tell me what is the output of the above sequence after you apply your patch to the current TeXmacs?

Take MacOSX 10.6 as an example:

1. Go to "System Preferences -> Language and Text -> Input Sources", select one of the CJK input methods such as "Chinese Simplified".

2. Now download Chinese font (fireflysung) from texmacs website and extract it to ~/.TeXmacs directory. Start texmacs, click the menu item "Edit->Preference->Language->Chinese" and restart it.

3. Inside texmacs, press Cmd+Space to activate Chinese input method. Now you could input some English characters, then press space, and the corresponding Chinese characters will be inserted to texmacs editor.
