Description

I am Japanese. Many Japanese who use Guacamole face the same troubles.

When using guacamole, it is not possible to switch to Japanese input mode using the full-width / half-width keys.

This is because the input on the local terminal side is switched from English to Japanese, and the remote terminal side remains in English.

 

Before pressing the full-width half-width key.

After pressing the full-width half-width key.

 

These could be resolved by modifying some js files for guacamole-client and the Source file for guacamole-server.

★guacamole-client
　guacamole-common-js/src/main/webapp/modules/Keyboard.js
　guacamole-common-js/src/main/webapp/modules/InputSink.js

★guacamole-server
　src/protocols/rdp/keymaps/ja_jp_qwerty.keymap
　src/protocols/rdp/settings.c

Are you sure you want to send a pull request for the fix?

※With this fix, many Japanese will be delighted and the number of guacamole users will increase!
