Neovim randomly opens in command or search mode #290

Closed noib3 closed 4 years ago

noib3 commented 4 years ago

About 50% of the times when I open a text file with l, neovim opens in search/command mode with a some very weird text in it. These are just two examples.

This never happens when I open neovim directly from the command line.

@n0ibe There was a similar issue reported for neovim. Did you identify the issue somehow? Why did you close the issue?

@gokcehan I closed the issue because I later found out it wasn't lf's problem. I tried several terminal based file managers (lf, ranger, vifm, nnn) and they all behaved the same way.

Turns out it's neovim's fault, and it's a known bug.
