Issue: cannot type the ` character
Labels: info-needed


Type: <b>Bug</b>

I'm on a mac using an italian keyboard and to type the \` character I have to use option + \\, this combo produce the \` character (and this combo, weirdly, works in this dialog).
Suddendly, after one vscode update (two or three updates ago) it stopped working.
I mainly use for markdown files.
