@neauoire i was talking about typing on a keyboard

here: git.sr.ht/~rabbits/uxn/tree/ma

if i type some character that's not ascii, for example, á (U+00E1), only the first byte (0xc3) of the utf-8 sequence 0xc3a1 gets recorded.

@la_ninpre Oh, yeah that's a SDL thing. The shavian onscreen keyboard I use sends multiple bytes to left git.sr.ht/~rabbits/uxn-utils/t

@neauoire wow, that's so cool. i'll go study the code then.
still i wonder if it will work with keyboard input in SDL...
one idea is to just send the text to the console port instead xD

@la_ninpre that's how the keyboard works ^__^

@neauoire i was trying to say that what if we just send all input from the keyboard to the console port instead of controller. i know that this it not how it is supposed to work, but that would make multibyte input possible without rewriting uxntal code that expects one value from the Controller/key...
i hope i'm not confusing you, haha

@la_ninpre Oh, haha. No that's not the way to do this, you want to run a controller vector evaluation for each byte.

@neauoire yes, i understand. but this means pretty much the same code has to be in both controller and console vectors, right?

@la_ninpre It depends on the program, but in left for example, both vectors run the same <insert> subroutine.
