[Runtime]: incorrect line wrapping #52

Open kuzp opened 11 years ago

kuzp commented 11 years ago

Line wrapping for long commands works incorrect: if carret goes to the end of line (while typing), carret won't change the line and the text in current line will be overwritten cyclically starting begin of the line

To reproduce this bug, just tupe long command. Logicaly the typed command works fine, but its text presentation in terminal is not correct

Thank you for the report. This bug is actually caused by bash trying to be too smart and taking over line wrapping when Final Term can already do that itself. I'm still evaluating how to best fix this.

@p-e-w Are you sure that this isn't the issue? Sadly, I tried escaping the non-displayable characters in final_term_control_sequence (a function which can be found in data/Startup/bash_startup.in), and it had no effect.
