konsole backspace
Last modified: 2018-02-07 21:48:42 UTC
hi, its happends after update. when I try put some commands in konsole, and a wrote something wrong, then I will make a correction with the backspace key the cursor not clear the characters, its moving to right. when I push the enter key I can get the corrected command, but I not understand while the cursor not moving left width the backspace key. I did'nt changed anything it the settings.
Does it happen unconditionally, or just with certain applications run in konsole? Does running "export TERM=xterm" or changing the TERM setting in Konsole's settings help? Sounds very much like the latest regression in ncurses... See also bug 1079543
(In reply to Wolfgang Bauer from comment #1) > Sounds very much like the latest regression in ncurses... To be clear, not really a regression in ncurses, but caused by changes in ncurses.
Created attachment 759326 [details] flying prompt
My TERM is xterm-256color. I think it was the default. It happends width the bash prompt for example. Other I did'nt tried. If I try to resize the Konsole window my prompt is "flies". I hope is the best expression :) Check the screenshot. I just resized few pixels.
