Can't enter more than one control-g

[brad0112358]

It appears that emacs silently discards control-g characters after the first one.

control-g works fine in the terminal, for example,

echo ^g^g^g^g | busybox od -x

displays the expected output including the four hex 07 characters.

But after starting up emacs, only the first control-g typed is actually seen by emacs. In other words, I can abort the first partially typed command, but subsequently, control-g does nothing. Only the first one is shown by the view-losage command as well.

BTW, Thanks for doing this port! Native emacs has been missing from android for far too long.

I did try with a different terminal emulator that is known to work with emacs in chroot ubuntu with the same result so the trouble seems to be in emacs itself.

Thanks

Which terminal emulator is known to work with emacs?

[brad0112358]

I guess it depends on how you define "works" my point was I tested your emacs with another terminal emulator on which I have used emacs (not your version of emacs, the ubuntu version via chroot). I tested your emacs with Better Terminal Emulator Pro where I have previously used the ubuntu version of emacs and it handles the keyboard quite well. Control-g works with the ubuntu version of emacs but BTEP does have other problems, for example, lines longer than 80 characters are corrupted because of apparent bugs in the terminal emulation and how it handles the cursor movement escape sequences, etc. I have reported several bugs to the author of that (paid) app, but none have been fixed so far. I suppose I could test the ubuntu version of emacs with your terminal emulator to be sure the problem with control-g is with the emacs binary. I'll let you know what I find.

Were you able to reproduce this? I'd like to investigate further on my end if it works for you.

[zielmicha]

Yes.

I'm able to reproduce the bug aswell.
