Key binding for turning on/off inputh methods (IM)

[shinta]

Currently, key binding for turning on/off input methods (switching Roman <--> (Japanese) input methods) is "Alt+Space" or "Alt+Zenkaku/Hankaku". (FYI: Zenkaku/Hankaku is a key which Japanese keyboard has.)

Alt+Space is good.

Alt+Zenkaku/Hankaku is required to change in Japanese community. Please no-midifiers Zenkaku/Hankaku, not Alt+Zenkaku/Hankaku. Currently, Zenkaku/Hankaku itself has no function, so, it is reasonable to make no-modifiers Zenkaku/Hankaku turn on/off.

Actually, old versions of Windows used Alt+Zenkaku/Hankaku to turn on/off input methods, but, current version of Windows uses no-modifiers Zenkaku/Hankaku.

SHINTA-san,

Can you provide a patch to attain the desired change? If you can, please provide one as an attachment.

[shinta]

I'll try.

[shinta]

This patch and patch for #2222 (hrev25413) realize this enhancement.

I applied in hrev25416. Could you confirm please ?

[shinta]

Thank you.

But, a bit difference.

not

if ((fKeyInfo.modifiers & B_COMMAND_KEY) != 0
&& (byte == ' ' || static_cast<uint8>(byte) == B_ZENKAKU_HANKAKU)) {

but

if ((fKeyInfo.modifiers & B_COMMAND_KEY) != 0
&& byte == ' ' || static_cast<uint8>(byte) == B_ZENKAKU_HANKAKU) {

because B_ZENKAKU_HANKAKU doesn't need B_COMMAND_KEY.

Applied in hrev25421. It's better to explicitly use parenthesis for such comparisons :)

[shinta]

Thank you :)
