[Uim] A question about the space bar

No, it's not. I just checked, and nothing of the sort you mentioned 
happens. Not with the old version of uim and not with the new one.

I'm sorry that it happens on your system, but I don't see how you can 
blame a patch for something that only happens on your system. Let's at 
least see if other people are having problems with it.

They're not affected here, like I said. Could you at least reinstall uim 
and try again?

That absolutely does not happen. I just tried.

I just tried that, too. Nothing.

I think you should at least reinstall uim, because these problems are 
too strange. The fact that you're seeing these changes in files that 
have nothing to do with hangul.scm almost makes it seem liks you've 
somehow changed generic.scm instead of hangul.scm.
