A few comments:
. I don't like the prompt -- I like the way the old C-x 8 code doesn't
show anything in the input area [until the normal time-delayed
key-echo display shows something -- note that this still happens if
you use `read-char' without a prompt]
. It's not necessary to say
(if old-method
(activate-input-method old-method)
(inactivate-input-method)))))
because `activate-input-method' will do the Right Thing if
old-method is nil.
. You don't have to convert the character list to a string and then
insert it -- you can just apply #'insert to the list, because insert
also works with multiple character arguments...
(sorry if these seem like nit-picking!)
