I need a screen record software to demo this bug, like this in a 80 character width terminal, 1. set PS1 to this and while I'm working in a very deep directory, PS1='\[\033[01;[EMAIL PROTECTED];34m\] \w \[\e[1;33;40m\]$? \$\[\033[00m\] ' 2. like, /media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/my-article, the result PS1 would be: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/my-article 0 $ 3. it's longer than 80 chars width, and it will be displayed in two lines; 4. run a long line command, like this, it should be longer than 80 chars, echo fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff 5. the bug didn't appear till now, 6. but then you use <Up-Arrow>, C-a<Home>, C-e<End>, C-r (back search), then C-a, C-e, mixture of <Left-Arrow>, <C-b>, <C-f>, <C-a>, <C-e>, <Home>, <End>, this bug will always reproduce, 7. the bug: the bash would not be able to locate the cursor to the correct place, [EMAIL PROTECTED] /media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/my -article 0 $ s/media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/ tools/dwxmlxslt.sh ./index.xml bash: s/media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/tools/dwxmlxslt.sh: 没有那个文件或目录 s [EMAIL PROTECTED] /media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.8/developerworks/ms -article 127 $ s/media/WD80G-HOME/gektop/tmp/author-package-cn/5.s/developerwork s/tools/dwxmlxslt.sh ./index.xml BTW, someone know a good screen record software under Linux please suggest it to me, I will record a video to show this bug clearly, Thanks. > > Chet > -- > ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer > > Chet Ramey, ITS, CWRU [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/ > -- Cheng Renquan, Shenzhen, China Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach - "Even a stopped clock is right twice a day."
