Leaving a link to #4298 here, since they're related and I don't want to lose track of them.

I am using a Spanish ISO keyboard and this issue prevents me from typing (in the terminal) most characters that require the Option modifier. Some notable examples:

• Option+1 should type |, but it does not.

• Option+2 should type@, but it does not.

• Option+3 should type #, but it does not.

These are important characters, and not being able to type them in the terminal is very inconvenient. I need to copy and paste these characters each time that I want to use them.

@BastienVigneron This seems to have been solved, at least on my end. There's a blog post with information about this: https://zed.dev/blog/keyboard-localization.
