Weird characters in some terminals. #8

Open bogdanteleaga opened 9 years ago

bogdanteleaga commented 9 years ago

The issue is better explained here https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/issues/2707.

It basically seems to only happen in some terminals, but it did use to work in both terminator and cool-retro-term. I am in the process of trying to revert to an older version but I am not sure if it's easy to do.

Unfortunately, I do not update spacemacs that open, so I can't tell you an exact time this was introduced, I'd say it worked about 2 weeks ago.

Looks like https://github.com/7696122/evil-terminal-cursor-changer/commit/2735a11a2a0c8d327b730cefef2794834263c413 introduced this regression.

It is worth noting that this package doesn't really work in Terminator. I took a look at how it's supposed to behave in xterm and it certainly doesn't do anything in Terminator, but at least it didn't use to introduce extra characters.

However, I'd be interested in adding support for Terminator or helping if it's possible. Could you tell me what the requirements would be?

Seeing the same issue.

@7696122 It would be great to get this fixed, so evil-terminal-cursor-changer could be re-added to Spacemacs :pray:

How is this going?

Alexander-Shukaev commented 7 years ago

Looks like nobody gives a shit. Though, this could have been a good package. The codebase is ridiculously small and given the huge spacemacs community, I don't understand why this is not officially forked and maintained properly yet. Sadly, I see such a rot happening to a number of good packages recently and even the so-promised open-source GitHub-griven whatever overhyped model does not help here at all.

I've made it work in urxvt and tmux https://github.com/amosbird/evil-terminal-cursor-changer . Not sure about other terminals though.
