Project does not support Chinese, can only copy, cannot edit, and chat interface does not support Chinese input

There have been multiple attempts at adding Chinese input claiming that it works after their change. But I don't recall them mentioning chat, only the virtual browser.

It was my mistake, the chat interface can accept Chinese input. But the virtual browser cannot accept Chinese input.

I found a Chrome extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/mclkkofklkfljcocdinagocijmpgbhab that enables users to type in any language (from a large selection of languages) in their browser. However, it is only available as a Chrome extension (with a .crx extension and as such, cannot be used with Firefox (Firefox extensions have a .xpi extension). Could you please integrate this extension into Neko so that users can type in languages other than English on your keyboard?

Thanks,

There is a way to send Unicode keysyms literally, being keyboard mapping independent, instead of sending virtual keycodes. Would be appropriate for many languages not using Latin.

The question is how to get proper codes from browser. We use guacamole keyboard, so it looks like they don't handle it well or just differently.

Keyboard

On Windows, send a CTRL+ALT+DEL to the remote computer. For all OS, change the keyboard mode here:

Virtual Key Codes: Send a virtual key code to the remote machine. This mode is keyboard mapping dependent

Unicode: Send unicode key presses. This mode is keyboard mapping independent. This mode does not handle long keypresses for app shortcuts.

I think there are two different ways to send keycodes, the latter applicable to this scenario.
