Multicursor only works with latin characters

[Bellavene]

Fore some reason, I can't type in other languages while in multicursor mode. It only types on the first cursor.

Which other languages? I tried Cyrillic and it works fine with multicursor.

What version of micro are you using? Which terminal emulator? Does the issue occur with an empty config directory?

I can reproduce this on Linux even with Latin characters when pressing Ctrl+Shift+V to paste (bracketed paste) and see this as EventPaste in > raw. "Escape non-ASCII input with Control-V" is probably enabled by default on Terminal.app.

iTerm2 seems to be used instead when searching an application-specific escape sequence written in a previous issue, but I wasn't able to see an option similar with Terminal.app or anything related when searching online.

Multiple cursors are handled with the Paste action (OSC 52, Ctrl-v EventKey in > raw by default) since the method is called on each cursor when using bindings, but this isn't done with EventPaste.

1. Latest, was trying also 2.0.14 on homebrew
2. iTerm 3.5.11 ( 3.5.12-13 fore some reasons are slow as hell )
3. Yes

BTW, as I tried current upstream version off micro, looks like copying is broken on macos.

By broken, do you mean that nothing is copied?

There hasn't been much changes to code related with actions and clipboard this year, and I don't think any could break copying. These are the only factors I can come up with and I'm not sure if we could help, but please feel free to provide any detail:

• Screen multiplexers like tmux
• clipboard option
• pbcopy command (program)
• Received events as seen with raw command
• Remote sessions like SSH
