Subject: 26.3; keyboard macro with input-method inserts characters twice
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 22:38:25 +0300

When I define keyboard macro with some input method enabled (lets say,
`english-dvorak`), `self-insert` commands are repeated twice.

For example, if I define macro like this:
`F3 insert chars asdf F4` and then hit `F4`, I will get the following
line:
```
insert chars asdf
```

But if I'll use some input method:
`F3 insert chars C-\ asdf F4`, I will get:
```
insert chars aaooeeuu
```

Characters that were typed with `english-dvorak` input method enabled
are repeated twice when macro is called. This happens with all input
methods.

I've asked this question on stackoverflow
(
https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/58131/keyboard-macro-with-input-method-inserts-characters-twice
)
and was advised to report this as a bug.

Thanks, this is already fixed in what will become Emacs 27.
