I love the concept of Spacepad. Works nicely on Linux on my end.

Regarding the special characters support, is there a way to simply disable them or something instead of having an error message that freezes up the app every time one is used? (I'm French and writing in French so a lot of unsupported characters come up). Or maybe load a custom font? (I have a bunch of retro/pixel art fonts on my system with support for latin characters!)

Not worries if it's out of scope, if so I won't use it, but I'll be sure to recommend it to English speakers!


thanks for you comment. Yes I am planning full international Latin support for an update coming in about ten days with a range of intl terminal fonts. 

I thought I had sanitized for exactly this case, but I’ve heard there’s also issues with Romanian keyboard layouts. I might actually just do a patch for this scenario crash in the next couple days  before I do the update, Sorry to be so American! Full international support in the works!

in the meantime you can  use a English keyboard layout which  I have tested throughly and which will block any characters the program can’t handle. 

Thank you very much for your reply! Looking forward to the update!
Regarding fonts, I really like the selection you already have in there. I checked those I have and most of them come from Cool Retro Term: https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term

I really like the Commodora 64 1982 font! In any case, thank you for your quick reply and for making this cool tool!

this is an incredible resource; thank you. Check back in a couple of days for a temporary patch that stops the crashing, or about ten days for the international edition. Many thanks for the compliments and the download. Happy writing!

alright, I’ve got a patch with  about 90% support of French in AZERTY, using the fonts in program right now. Missing the Ÿ and a couple diacritics but most other things are there. Will post tonight or tomorrow. And then 100% support in version 1.2, June 1st. Ÿves isn’t that common of a name, is it?

Amazing! And tbh Ÿ is a very rare character, not sure I ever saw it actually used. The names Yves doesn't have the accent on the Y!

Ÿ not? ok, it is done. And for the full International SpacePad Station update, June 1st, Im gonna grab that font from the minitel terminal. here's the update: https://spacepad.itch.io/spacepad/devlog/1528559/update-114l-international-spacepad-station-imperial-spacepad

also, which pixel fonts with latin characters do you like? I'm making a big list to evaluate them for the international edition dropping soon
