You are correct it seems, the bug was introduced in a recent version of key-chord and had another related report.

At the time this didn't seem related, a lesson to read recent commits and bug reports. Anyways, fixed in the package repo.

Thank you all for your time

This does look more like a bug in key-chord than in Emacs itself, so I
recommend that someone interested investigates that first.  In
particular, the behavior that doesn't work is the one implemented by the
key-chord package.

I don't think there's much more we can do on our end until that work has
been done, so I'm closing this bug as "notabug" for now.  The tag
indicates our belief this is not a bug in Emacs itself (the bug seems to
be elsewhere, namely in key-chord).

Thanks.

Subject: Flyspell + Key-chord, chords are ignored while typing / spellchecking

With Flyspell mode enabled, key-chord combinations are ignored until Flyspell has finished marking incorrect words, chord characters are typed instead.

To reproduce

1. Install the key-chord package from MELPA
2. M-: (key-chord-define-global "jk" "testing")
3. key-chord-mode & flyspell-mode
4. Type and quickly try to invoke the "jk" chord (press both keys at the same time)
5. Result should be "testing" being inserted in the buffer but instead the chord is ignored and "jk" is typed
   

Workarounds to resume chord recognition:

1. Waiting a few moments until Flypsell finishes marking incorrect words
2. Issuing C-g quickly after typing (does mark incorrect words)
3. Pressing Space, Delete or typing numbers/symbols
   

Reproduced on v30.0.50 native-comp with no other configuration present via "$ env HOME=testing emacs".

If anyone has ideas on code that can be blamed or further debug steps, please let me know.

Cheers,

ENisse
