How can you input characters not on the keyboard > in Term char mode then? It's emulating a terminal. In char mode you can't input *keys* that are not on the keyboard of the terminal being emulated. That's the point of the emulation -- it's behaving as if you were using a real terminal rather than Emacs. We can switch to line mode when we want to use Emacs features that are not supported by the terminal. > And if it's really expected, please add an user option to configure > it. A user option to configure... what? Do you mean an option which would *allow* using input methods in char mode? As above, I don't believe that makes any sense as a concept, so I don't see how that could work. (Perhaps someone else will correct me, though.)
