Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

Maybe it is a small error, even for a rarely used symbol like the at sign @, but I find it quite annoying not being able to write the at sign to send emails. I realized this error configuring nodemailer.

My OS specifications if are needed or useful:

MacOS Sequoia.
M2 Chip.
MacBook Air.

I tried uninstalling Zed, also tried installing the universal bin. Not luck.

Environment

Zed buffer, editor, terminal, chat, etc.

Are you using a specific keyboard or layout? This works on my personal macbook with the U.S. keyboard layout.

Im using LATAM keyboard. I bought this MBA in Chile. To type the at sign we use ctrl-Q.

To add some more details, all other special characters like €∑®†¥¨¨ı©ƒ∂≈ç∫~ƒ∂ works just fine in Zed, is only focused on the @ sign…which is weird. I figure maybe there is a keymap or some macros that is embedded with ctrl-Q which would affect LATAM keyboard dist.

Hey @DiegoHerreraGre, I think this is a duplicate of:

• Can't type '@' character on Latin America keyboard #18929

So I'm going to close this one out in favor of that one. Feel free to upvote with a 👍.

That being said, there seems to be a workaround mentioned here:

• Cannot insert ‘@’ symbol with Latin American keyboard layout on MacBook Pro after version 0.154.4 #18607

Let me know if this helps you out.

Thanks!! These issues resolved my issue. In fact, I was actually putting in bindings alt-q: null but only in Editor context and not the Workspace or Terminal, so I just added the latter and back to normal.
