[Vim-latex-devel] buggish: vim-latex and multibyte character input

[Kihwang L. <k....@ed...>]

Hi!

I have downloaded the vim-latex yesterday and installed it.
What a piece of work!!!

I am reporting a buggish behaviour of vim-latex I have found.
I am a Korean, and naturally I frequently use LaTeX to produce Korean
documents.

I use Linux (tailored RedHat 7.1), gvim (6.1.165) and a XIM server called Ami for Korean input.
The thing is that when I use vim-latex with Ami, I can't input Korean
characters (euc-kr) properly. It is hard to describe. Korean and many other scripts belong to so-called composite characters: you have to input several (more than 2) key strokes to make a meaningful unit (sort of a character, but not necessarily a word). I don't know about the internals of vim-latex. My guess is that vim-latex stores the key strokes in a buffer and checks them and returns them, and it is intervening the character composition process of a XIM. 

Can you help me?

Many thanks in advance.

Kihwang
