Description

@dev-nicolaos

Steps to Reproduce

  • Create a keybinding for CtrlSpace in bindings.json
  • Open a file in micro (in the environment specified below)
  • Open raw mode from the command bar
  • Press CtrlSpace
  • Observe that the expected characters are registered by micro
  • Exit raw mode (Ctrl-q)
  • Press CtrlSpace

Expected Result

The action bound to CtrlSpace in binding.json is executed.

Observed Result

A space is added to the open file at the cursor's location.

Environment

Commit hash: 68d88b5
OS: Windows 10
Terminal: Windows Terminal
Shell: Powershell 7.4.2

Notes

I've tested these same steps in Kitty on Fedora 40 and this issue isn't present in that environment. I also tested multiple actions to make sure it was the binding and not the action.
