Package: xterm
Version: 229-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
Got a surprizing issue with grep colored output today; it seems that if
coloring starts around the end of the line, the last char is chopped.
e.g.:
echo "
1234" | grep --color=auto '[1-9]'
(80 spaces and 1234)
displays ... nothing.
If I add more spaces or remove some, I see most of 1234 in red,
but it's sometimes chopped at the end of the line.
gnome-terminal works fine with the same test cases.
Bye,
