Well, I'm certainly not using an Asian keyboard (not unless you mean
manufactured in Asia! :) ) and I don't understand, in that case, why
it's apparently ONLY the Lazarus 1.8 RC3 IDE that's affected. In case
you missed it in my original posting, I can still use 1.6.4 with no
evidence of the problem.

However, out of curiosity, I did check, and ibus is NOT installed on
my system.
