Hyper: Can't type ~ character

[sergiopvilar]

Hello guys,

I can't type the ~ character in Hyperterm in 0.7.1 as in the previous versions. Could someone help me? Thank you so much!

Hello!

if you try running (in hyperterm)
echo $LANG
What do you get?

Probably related to #441

[sergiopvilar]

@albinekb hello! That's what I get:

❯ echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8

Can't type the "~" char as well in the latest version.

I'm using fish and locale is set to german:

LANG=de.UTF-8

[fecabianchi]

same here... can't type any of those special characters like ~ ' " `

❯ echo $LANG       
en_US.UTF-8

Is it a foreign keyboard? Possibly related/duplicate of #29.

[fecabianchi]

nop, a macbook en_us keyboard. but the layout in osx is U.S. International.

Tested with CODE Keyboard US International, Pok3r Keyboard US International and Macbook Keyboard En US all of them with US International layout and DVORAK-QWERTY, same problem.

Also, I'm using oh-my-zsh. Tested with pure and bullet-train themes.

same for me... chars like ~ ' " not work.
US International key board on macbook 15'
$LANG returns: en_US.UTF-8

Maybe somenone at #214 could help us?

@sergiovilar I'm currently rewriting #214... hopefully done soon ™️ I'll ping you when it's ready to test
Edit: harder than i thought...

[sergiopvilar]

@albinekb Thank you!

This is a good temporary fix until 214 is ready to land. https://github.com/zeit/hyperterm/pull/521
