I got a report that Quixe on Android is double-triggering the input event on line input. That is, every time the person hits Enter, they get the command input followed by a blank input:
>i
You are carrying nothing.>
I beg your pardon?>jump
You jump on the spot, fruitlessly.>
I beg your pardon?
This is on the Advent.inf page at https://eblong.com/zarf/glulx/quixe/, so I can’t blame Inform.
They say “It [the bug] has been around for… a couple of years? Longer?” That might correspond to the 2.2.1 release (July 4 2022), which included a GlkOte fix tagged “Improve character input on Android Chrome.”
But I’ve never heard anybody mention this bug before. And I think the patch came over from Parchment, so if it happens on all Android setups, it would be really obvious.
Does anybody have any idea what’s going on?
