bug#66664: On modified lines containing 🌐︎ and Unicode VS15 in text mode emacs does not show the real content of the lines |

Hello Eli,
thanks for your answer. I am using Gnome Terminal 3.48.1 on Fedora 38, but with
MATE Terminal 1.26.1 the same happens. I tried to follow your advice. I start
emacs -nw u.txt , then M-x auto-composition-mode.
Emacs changes the displayed text from
t.add('🌐︎ ' + 'abcd')
to
t.add('🌐 ' + 'abcd')
and prints “Auto-Composition mode disabled in current buffer”. After the
change the globe is coloured in the terminal and there is an underscore after
the globe. I again press several times the right arrow to go over the letter c
and then press x. Emacs again deletes (actually hides) the letter c and shows
on its place the letter x.
So in this example turning off auto-composition-mode does not help.
I expect that the letter c stays visible.
What terminals and OSes do you recommend, which work good with enabled
auto-composition-mode?
Kind regards
Дилян

What is the terminal emulator you are using, and on what OS?
Basically, what the above means is that the text terminal you are
using doesn't support the sequence of U+1F310 followed by VS-15 as
Emacs expects it. On such a terminal you need to disable
auto-composition-mode to be able to edit such text.
