 "Wayland's input-method is broken and it's my fault" ( 2024 )

Saturday at 16:00, 25 minutes, H.1309 (Van Rijn), H.1309 (Van Rijn), FOSS on Mobile Devices devroom dcz , slides , video

I (re)designed the Wayland input-method protocol for Phosh. It worked! Until I tried to implement things like, you know, pre-edit, or moving to the next field. Then I had to switch to another project.

I'll describe what's wrong and where to find hope.

(Sorry.)
