Please CC submitters when you have questions/comments they should see,
I only saw your message by coincidence when looking at the bug.

I don't get this on the machine where I tested the script.
It sounds like your test environment doesn't have /dev/pts/ mounted?

I've adopted that. The script also had some other issues that I fixed;
it was not compatible with dash printf (which doesn't support \xNN),
included unwanted LF bytes and also neglected to truncate the file at
the right place after writing the result string.
Please include this script instead:
#!/bin/sh
set -e
rm -f nonempty empty result
echo -n nonempty > nonempty
echo -n > empty
echo -n result > result
for f in nonempty empty ; do
echo "Editing $f in hexedit"
printf "$f"'\n\tresult\33ty\30y' |
pipetty hexedit 2>&1 |
ansi2txt |
tr '\r' '\n'
done
head -vn-0 nonempty empty result ; echo
for f in nonempty empty ; do
cmp "$f" result
done
