That's really weird, I can only think of two possible reasons why this might happening, at the moment:

1. this might be related to symlinks or

2. related to the translation of some keys, resulting in the execution of the auto searching function.

   Could you try the below:

   • run python -c 'import TUIFIManager; print(TUIFIManager.__path__)'
   • ^ cd into that directory, and add auto_find_on_typing=false at the end of this line: https://github.com/GiorgosXou/TUIFIManager/blob/db2f2f667fc3e2a09680720f9961fcb52630312f/TUIFIManager/__main__.py#L39
   • and let me know, if that fixed the issue?

I've found out that this is related to symlinks and it reproducible

1. Enter symlinked directory
2. Try to leave (using Return on directory icon with name ..)

This is really weird, because I have quite the same specs and that doesn't happen to me...What OS, do you use? is it FreeBSD by any chance? This issue, I'm guessing that it has to do with the unpacking of the path: https://github.com/GiorgosXou/TUIFIManager/blob/db2f2f667fc3e2a09680720f9961fcb52630312f/TUIFIManager/__init__.py#L150

So, try this:

• open the __init__.py
• go below this line, out of the "for-loop": https://github.com/GiorgosXou/TUIFIManager/blob/db2f2f667fc3e2a09680720f9961fcb52630312f/TUIFIManager/__init__.py#L129
• add this line: unicurses.mvwaddwstr(self.pad,0,0, self.directory)

and let me know with a recording, what it showed up
