Can't type anything in ST2/3 when using SCIM

#1

Title says it all… for the most part. There are only three (singular) keys that appear to function correctly in the editor window, the Enter key, the Tab key, and the Backspace key. All other keys don’t do anything. Keybindings, however, appear to work just fine. ctrl+v will paste text, ctrl+c will copy text, etc. However, if I press the c or the v keys (or any other keybound key) individually, nothing happens.

Turns out, everything works when I run GTK_IM_MODULE= ./sublime_text instead of just running it directly…

It appears to me that sublime_text doesn’t work too well with scim as a GTK input method.
