Inquirer.Text duplicates on line break #471

Open fynnfluegge opened 12 months ago

If a user enters a value for inquirer.Text and the value exceeds the terminal width, the inquirer prompt is duplicated on each character in the new line:

However, it still works fine and the value is read properly but for the user it might be very confusing.

this is a known issue in the renderer. You cannot use line-breaks anywhere or it will cause issues.

Hey there @fynnfluegge, I opened another repository that is a fork of this one that hopefully will be more responsive (Issues/PRs/..).

Feel free to take a look and ask any questions: https://github.com/guysalt/python-inquirer3

Just letting you know that i already fix that bug and made couple of other improvements! (like trim_header and trim_options options)

I still have a lot of work to do, and have plenty ideas:)
