ahahahaha, sorry, dude, couldn't help.  It seems it took me years of
standing it and file a complain here to actually discover it's a
Windows issue:

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/langbar_keystroke_shortcuts.mspx?mfr=true

in other words, sometimes as I type alt+shift to do all the
hierarchical editing, it clashes with the default Windows keycombo to
change the keyboard layout.  So, it's not Racket at fault here.  I'll
just change the Windows default and stop being such a lazy bastard...

That sounds annoying. If you can figure out how to replicate the
problem, I can certainly take a look.

Thanks,

[racket-dev] Issue with languages in Windows

2012-03-19 Thread namekuseijin
You know, something that bugs me about DrRacket since the times of
DrScheme is that it randomly seems to change the current language to
EN, as shown in the attached image.

I imagine most of you racket devs don't deal with it, but for users in
other countries, it's midly annoying if for no other reason than the
keyboard layout changes and ' turns into ` as well as ? goes off.  I
have to click back to portuguese so that it works again.

I don't know what triggers it, if some combination of keys or
whatever, but it consistently behaves like this, several times in a
single session.

Anyone would be willing to take a look at it?
