19:05 <lljuicewrld> Hi everyone

19:12 <lljuicewrld> I'm trying to pass the Alt+e key combination to a curses program, but instead of sending the direct keycode, it's sending the glyph 'å'. I need to find a way to send the actual keycode, which I believe is ^E or ^[[27~ not sure.

20:13 <redpanda> :3

20:15 <lljuicewrld> I read the manpage for a keymode but found none

20:39 <lljuicewrld> In simple terms I want to get the raw input

20:40 <lljuicewrld> Get ^[e instead of å

21:27 <cbb> if I run `printf "\E[?1036l" && cat -v` and press Alt+e, å is what I see

21:27 <cbb> the program you're using must be toggling that mode, because that's not foot's default behavior

21:32 <cbb> ^[e still isn't raw input though, all modified keys use some kind of encoding

21:33 <cbb> depending on what you're trying to do, you might want to look into the kitty keyboard protocol, which is the only sane one tbh

22:47 <redpanda> Thanks, Im using kitty now for that specific program
