Description

  • Your Windows build number: (Type ver at a Windows Command Prompt)
    10.0.18362.86
  • What you're doing and what's happening:
    Using ALT+numpad to input some characters by their code. For example I'm typing ALT+97 to enter a
    • in cmd in terminal: 9 and 7 appear when hitted, and a appears when releasing ALT
    • in powershell in terminal: digit-argument is triggered, so a is duplicated 97 times when releasing ALT
  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:
    should have same behavior as outside the terminal

Perhap it is similar to #637

    Adding support for this is in PR currently, #623.

    Actually I mean all inputs should be blocked when holding ALT, except for those shortcuts. This issue does not have much to do with #623

    Ah okay, I see what you mean now. Yea, #623 probably even makes this worse. I'll change this to a bug.

    /dup #1401

    I know this is the older one, but that one has a bit more code info in it and seems to be similar enough.
