for what I recall, backspace starts by removing *letters* from the last syllable, then entire syllabes. Moreover, hitting a directional key like <LEFT> <RIGHT> or any key that changes the caret position terminates composition of the current syllabe.
In fact, when you type, the currently composed syllabe appears in blinking inverted video, and a <SPACE> or the end of possible composition (ie, no more letters can be combined into a valid syllabe) terminates the sequence. At this point, the real syllabe is displayed normally as a unicode character and composition starts again. I noticed that in some editors where this blinking character cannot appear (e.g. in a cmd.exe console), the current combination is displayed in the corner of the current window in a small frame. Writing a complete spec is a good idea ;) seb
