Indeed. In order to not expose too much of my real passphrase, I have
taken a list of letters and signs that differ between german and
american keyboards, and added one after the other to the passphrase of
my test key. The passphrase "MitPara§" was the first one to fail.
KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x2e00001,
root 0x4c, subw 0x0, time 217085458, (169,-9), root:(1293,9),
state 0x2000, keycode 33 (keysym 0xa7, section), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (a7) "§"
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (a7) "§"
XFilterEvent returns: False
C-h k says:
§ runs the command self-insert-command
which is an interactive built-in function in `C source code'.
It is bound to many ordinary text characters.
(self-insert-command n)
Insert the character you type.
Whichever character you type to run this command is inserted.
Should I report this to the Emacs mailing list, or do you have a better
idea to proceed?
Regards, Frank
