Toot

To test IME (input method editors) properly in Linux, you need to build a matrix of: ibus/fcitx, wayland/x11, a few input archetypes (CJK, deadkey like Spanish, Emoji, Unicode hex), and then versions (i.e. ibus 1.5.29 is in Ubuntu LTS but has bugs). Its a wild ride, but I did it!

As I said yesterday, the next version of Ghostty (1.1) should work great across a variety of input methods. There may still be bugs but all known input method bugs are now closed and I've tested the matrix above with comparison to other apps to verify things are working great.

I should devlog about this...
