I spoke too soon. Microsoft Edge doesn't appear to lack NLS support when started from a mintty window either with cygstart or the /cygdrive path. qutebrowser, started from a mintty window with both cygstart and the /cygdrive path, does lack support. But when started from a 'cmd' prompt as "c:\Program Files\qutebrowser\qutebrowser.exe" qutebrowser's NLS support doesn't differ from Edge's. The 3 Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese MS IME I have on this Japanese Windows 10 computer have various ways of switching between ASCII (I guess) keyboard entry and kana, hangul and bopomo entry modes. The Japanese switch is via the CapsLock key. The Korean switch is via clicking a task bar toggle next to the IME icon (?) in the lower right hand corner. The Traditional Chinese switch is Ctrl-Space None of these toggle switches are responsive with qutebrowser started from a mintty window, and I can only input ASCII. (But they are when it's started from the 'cmd' prompt or desktop.) The Korean switch has a pop-up message in Japanese saying the switch is inoperative (or disabled.) > > Of course the IME are working in the mintty bash shell and 'screen' > > sessions. > > > > I don't understand. > > Thanks for your work with mintty. > > -- > Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html > FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ > Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html > Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple -- Greg "Dr Bean" Matheson Some are born autonomous.
