odd behavour on windows

[pm100]

I reported this bug to tui-textarea https://github.com/rhysd/tui-textarea here rhysd/tui-textarea#14

They support tui and ratatui

In their demo app (very simple) the keystrokes are duplicated on windows. It works fine using tui but fails 100% using ratatui

here is gif of the behavior

Go checkout #120 which brought up the same issue, essentially in windows you will need to match against the specific KeyPressed event, otherwise your code will also be triggered by KeyUp event (don't quote me on the event type names tho). All the examples were fixed in order to handle this explicitly in #129.

So without checking out their example, that's most likely what's happening.

but it worked fine with tui, so ratatui introduced a breaking change? or was it crossterm?

[lthoerner]

This is a crossterm issue

[mindoodoo]

@pm100 I wouldn't be able to tell you without looking more into it why it changed, but this was most likely introduced by a crossterm update. However, this isn't a bug with ratatui nor crossterm and more a bug with the particular example you're looking at.

There's an open pr over on the crossterm repo aiming to make the KeyUp event opt-in, but hasn't been merged yet.

Since this isn't really a bug with ratatui, I'll close this for now.

fyi - caused by crossterm-rs/crossterm#745
