Asynchronously auto-switch the input source after leaving insert mode. After the switch is complete, regardless of whether the switch succeeds or fails, iswitch will check if an iswitch process is already running. If no iswitch process is found, iswitch will not exit; it will remain running.

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('InsertLeave', {
  callback = function()
    if vim.fn.executable('iswitch') == 0 then
      return
    end
    vim.system({ 'iswitch', '-s', 'com.apple.keylayout.ABC' }, nil, function(proc)
      if proc.code ~= 0 then
        api.nvim_err_writeln('Failed to switch input source: ' .. proc.stderr)
      end
    end)
  end,
  desc = 'auto switch to abc input',
})
