Description
Extension
https://www.raycast.com/itsmingjie/word-count
Raycast Version
1.104.10
OS Version
macOS 15.7.4
Description
When executing the "count" command, some keyboard input "leaks" cmd-c twice into the previously focused application.
This is especially annoying when I use nvim, because it ignores cmd and cc means "clear this line"...
Steps To Reproduce
- go to https://w3c.github.io/uievents/tools/key-event-viewer.html
- focus the text input
- open raycast and execute the "count" command from this extension
- see how "Meta-C" is caught up by the key event listener twice
Current Behaviour
leaks key events
Expected Behaviour
leaves background apps unaffected
