For example. Take a cocoa app (I just tried with Camino).
After adding "Thai" in the international system preferences, i
select Thai from the input menu.
I go to the "Google" NSSearchField of camino and type "oh" which
appear in Thai. Then press "h" a few times.
If I am not mistaken, the key labeled "O" will produce THAI CHARACTER
NO NU, and "H" will create THAI CHARACTER MAI THO.
The latter is a Nonspacing_Mark, so it comes a no surprise if several
MAI THOs will print on top of each other.
But rest assured: there is no word in Thai which has several MAI THOs
following each other.
The letter represented by "h" appears at the same spot in the search
field, at first it looks like it didnt take the input but in fact it
print the letters on top of each other, you can even see the
character getting darker in the search field.
You should get the same behaviour when you enter cafe + several
COMBINING ACUTE ACCENTs.
But in this case you get a series of ACUTE ACCENTs stacked on top of
each other.
This is a very cool bug indeed
What is the bug? That the several MAI THOs occupy the same space and
are not stacked on top of each other like a series of ACUTE ACCENTs?
I would not call this a bug: as I said, this never happens with real
Thai words. Same as in French there are no words having more than one
ACUTE ACCENT.
But if you explain what you would like to happen, then maybe someone
has an idea how to acconplish this.
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
