[Bug]: First word repeats when using "swype" to type.

[frankforte]

Problem description

If I swipe the words hello world it's a nice day termux will show hellohellohellohellosahellohello
The only way to get around it is typing a single character after I swipe each word, then hitting backspace, then hitting space before "swiping" the next word.

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

The issue happens when using "swipe" to type on the command line and in Vim.

What is the expected behavior?

The output should match the input.

System information

• Termux application version: 0.118.0 (same bug existed since the old version from Google Play)
• Android OS version: 13
• Device model: Samsung Galaxy S20+ 5G

Autocorrection and word prediction, T9 and other word-based input methods always would cause issues.

Termux supports only the most basic, character-by-character input. Its terminal is not a text input field.

A workaround explained at https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Touch_Keyboard#Text_Input_View

Excellent. I'm sorry I didn't find this documentation earlier. Thanks for the link.
