Searching the bugtracker, I found
this:http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=15688

It seems to be a GTK2 problem, in the CheckDeadKey procedure
(lcl/interfaces/gtk2/gtk2proc.inc).

I tried to comment out such code and replace the call by a single call
to gtk_im_context_filter_keypress. It solved the duplication problem but
I can't type an accent key (a dead key) in one control, and after type
the letter in other control. It's not a big problem to me, but it's a
pattern in applications behavior.

Does anybody know how can I contact someone in the development team and talk about this? I'd like to help to improve the GTK2 support, but I'm a
newbie about this...
Looking at the bug thread it seems that there is no solution yet that
works on all systems, right?

Hello, Mattias! I don't know... I have no problems with native win32 widgetset. Did anybody test GTK2 widgetset in Windows? Maybe I should do it, just to see its behavior, although I won't neet it.

Done, I have just tested GTK2 in Windows (XP). The letter duplication doesn't happen. If I type an accent (a dead key) in one control, and move the focus to other control, the first "loses" the accent. It's a good behavior (to me). I made the change in gtk2proc.inc and the behavior remains the same.

In Linux, with the original gtk2proc.inc, I have the letter duplication problem. Changing the gtk2 binding code, I can type accents fine. But, if I type a dead key in one control and move to other, the accent "stays" in the first control, waiting for the letter. I don't see it as a big problem.

The changes I made:
- Remove the CheckDeadKey procedure
- Replace its call by a: *gtk_im_context_filter_keypress(im_context, AEvent);**
