Corrupt "make menuconfig" display #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When running "make menuconfig" on a remote Linux box, the display slightly
corrupts when switching through menu items.

This issue might also be related to rtorrent corruption when paging through
torrent list.  Could be another unicode issue with drawString() in Android?
 Otherwise might be an ANSI handling error.

This appears to be related to the TERM environment variable.  bash/ncurses 
appears to
send nicely-behaving ANSI codes when we have TERM=screen, so I'm thinking that 
should
be our default.  However, some apps then running inside of a screen instance on 
the
remote host don't refresh correctly.  Specifically page-up/down in irssi and 
arrowing
up/down in rtorrent front page list.

This might be because bash puts the commands through the TERM=screen filter 
twice? 
I'm not a terminal/ANSI expert.

rendering is working "good enough" for now, but would be interested in fixing 
in the
future.
