Bug: macro recording of typing doesn't work.

[wrightwriter]

It only records a single character stroke. Multiple characters don't work

[terryzfeng]

Using [q] to record a macro works for me. Can you describe your issue in more detail?

[wrightwriter]

Hey, very weird, I can't get a macro recording of typing working under multiple different chromium browsers and multiple different websites - https://editor.bitwiser.in and 2 other separate ones we are working on!

[wrightwriter]

I used i and a to enter insert mode

[terryzfeng]

Hmm perhaps https://editor.bitwiser.in isn't up to date for some reason?

I am able to get it to work on my website:
https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~tzfeng/webchuck-ide/dist

[wrightwriter]

Oh that works! We use the https://unpkg.com/monaco-vim/dist/monaco-vim version in https://compute.toys/new (I forgot why, but it didn't work as npm package in react/nextjs). Maybe it isn't updated?

[terryzfeng]

unpkg seems to be pointing to version 0.4.0 which is what I'm using as well on npm. Macros also seem to be working at https://godbolt.org/

Are you on 0.4.0 as well?

[wrightwriter]

very weird, it should be fetching the current version from unpckg! Tried updating monaco as well, but no change. It's weird that we have this issue on 2 different projects.

[terryzfeng]

Hmm yeah, you could hard point it to 0.4.0 too if you haven't already: https://unpkg.com/monaco-vim@0.4.0/dist/monaco-vim.js

[wrightwriter]

huh, that version actually breaks any kind of macro replay, it seems.
if it matters - I initialize monaco-vim like this:

            window.require.config({
                paths: {
                    // 'monaco-vim': 'https://unpkg.com/monaco-vim/dist/monaco-vim'
                    'monaco-vim': 'https://unpkg.com/monaco-vim@0.4.0/dist/monaco-vim.js'
                }
            });
            window.require(['monaco-vim'], MonacoVim => {
                const statusNode = document.querySelector('.vim-status');
                setVimContext(MonacoVim.initVimMode(editor, statusNode));
            });

Does this look correct?
