open a linux terminal
run midnight commander
in midnight commander, run nano inexistant_file
nano opens, close it with CTRL-X now you get a black screen with a blinking cursor. the cursor transformed from previously _ to [] style, i.e. it looks like an insert-mode cursor.
quit mc py pressing F10. the cursor still is [], and the terminal state is messed up. text you enter is not visible. need to type reset to get the terminal back into a usable state.

the same happens after opening/closing hexedit(0r), so it's probably not nano's fault.
