Description
Bayes Editor: stranges movements with Alt + numeric keys
Only Windows (?)
There is a old way to insert characters in a editor:
press the Alt key while type the ASCII code of the
character with the most right numeric pad
For example the @ is Alt + 64
the ~ is Alt + 126
the | is Alt + 124
This is a way to work when the key board is strange,
is miss configurated or configurated in other language.
If you try to introduce a @ in the middle of a line
the first 6 move one character to right, the 4 move
on to left and @ appears at correct place but with
stanges movements.
If you try to introduce a | in the middle of a line
the first 1 move the cursor to end of line, the 2 move
the cursor to the next line and the last 4 one character
to the left and the | appears in a diffent place.

This it is the behavior offered by the component.
It was tried to correct in a near future.
The most right numeric pad:
where usually have associated other keys
The default binding for this other keys is being called in editor when pressing
then.
I have a notebook keyboard, and when I use numeric keys (enabling numeric pad
with Fn+NunLk key) to introduce an Alt+ ASCII code I don't have this movements.
To solve this problem (and other related problems) perhaps we need to disable
all text default bindings and bind only those we need.
