Bash Version: 3.0 Patch Level: 16 Release Status: release Description: Typing in a command (without hitting <CR>), and then clearing the window with ^L results in extra characters being added to the command line. This may be the result of bash not properly taking into account escape sequences in the prompt. As an example: 250 scripts > ls /bin - <CR> not typed yet Now I press ^L, and the window looks like: 250 scripts > ls /bin /bin Trying to erase the entire line using BS, leaves: 250 scripts > ls /b My prompt is set to: PS1='\[\e]2;\w\007\]\[\e[1;31m\]\# \[\e[32m\]\W \[\e[36m\]> \[\e[0m\]' Repeat-By: Set prompt to: PS1='\[\e]2;\w\007\]\[\e[1;31m\]\# \[\e[32m\]\W \[\e[36m\]> \[\e[0m\]' At the shell prompt, type a command without hitting <CR>. Now type ^L. Observe extra chars added to the command. Backspace to try to eliminate the entire line. Observe that some chars cannot be erased. Fix: (I have none.) _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
