For the special case mentioned (no controlling terminal), this is not specific to xterm, and is unlikely to be a bug in the terminal emulator.
I just verified that I can see identical results with xterm, urxvt, pterm, konsole and lxterminal. (perhaps vte-based stuff differs, but it's not worth considering due to lack of command-line compatibility) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199462 Title: Job control is off in the subshell To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xterm/+bug/1199462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
