(Looks like C++ would be able to send anything including shortcuts with modifiers. But bad things will happen if REAPER is built using a different curses.h than the extension.) |
Yes, this method works as Edgemeal had already showed, but it has a limit of 64 characters.

I quickly checked, and it works fine in the Action list's filter editbox.
WM_SETTEXT has also not been implemented on macOS, so I haven't included it in the list of message names that the extension will recognize. |
This does not work in the IDE window, where I am interested in.
