Subject: bug#33640: 27.0.50; Wrong column when prompt contains combining characters
Date: Thu, 06 Dec 2018 01:05:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k1knbmmj.fsf@mail.linkov.net> (raw)
Tags: patch
If the minibuffer prompt contains combining characters in such cases
when for example dired-do-async-shell-command is invoked on a file
whose name contains COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT, then navigating the
minibuffer history with M-n and M-p puts point at incorrect positions.
This is because currently next-line-or-history-element and
previous-line-or-history-element subtract the point's position
from the column number that takes into account character composition.
This patch uses only columns in calculations.
Eli, do you think this fix should be installed to the emacs-26 branch?
