Description Karl F. Glatzer 2010-07-22 03:08:01 UTC 
Textinput for characters with more than 1 byte isn't working anymore. I know that this worked before, but sadly i don't know in which revision this broke.

This probably affects many people not only with non-english keyboard layouts, because even on many English keyboard layouts are characters bigger than 1 byte.

PS: I also would like a fix for the dead_keys, but that probably needs some bigger changes.

Ok except for the dead_keys it is fixed in revision 4567:1d7ea8724f4a.
