:terminal

Dear Vimmers,
just recently I'm passed to use vim 8 (8.2 to be precise) from vim 7.4.

I really like the idea of having a terminal attached to my editor (:terminal)
unfortunately in my case it doesn't work properly.

In particular I think this is a configuration problem. I've a US keyboard
configured as international withe dead keys. This means that ' " ` ~ and some
other keys need a second keystroke (a space) to print their value otherwise it is
composed to the next keystroke.

It works like a charm in bash but not in the vim terminal. When I press one of
these keys followed by a space instead of the correct character I get a ;2u.
This makes quite unusable the terminal and quite frustrating to use the mouse
to go to a real terminal.

The problem seems to be limited to gvim, on vim it works as expected.

I googled around without lucky. Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong? Or
how to solve the issue?

I'm on Fedora 31 up-to-date

Thank you

Walter
