Description

@vlj
  • Your Windows build number: My build is : Microsoft Windows [version 10.0.18362.1]
    Using vscode 1.32.3 with conpty enabled.

  • What you're doing and what's happening:
    When trying to type some specific character with a french keyboard layout, an extra character ("é") is added. For now I spotted 2 characters, ~ and . More precisely, if I press "alt gr" and 2 at the same time, a "é" is added. If I then press space, then I have "é~" in the prompt. If I press "alt gr" and seven at the same time, a "é" is added. If I then press space, then I have "é" in the prompt.

  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:
    What should happen is that no ~ is added.
