Is there any other way to intercept the multilanguage sequences ?
Sure, in whichever object is your first responder (i.e. the control or
view that is receiving the text input), implement:
- (void)insertText:(NSString*)insertString;
The string passed in as the parameter is the result *after* any input
methods have parsed the raw key input. For this reason, as you have
discovered, it is usually a bad idea to deal with raw key events.
