On my system it looks like this:
cs@d5421:~$ translate -i occure Vorkommen {n} (von etw.) [min.] |
Erdölvorkommen {n} | Vorkommen in Linsenform; linsenförmiges Vorkommen |
schichtförmiges Vorkommen :: presence; occurrence (of sth.) | oil occurrence |
lens-shaped occurence; lenticularity | occurrence in strata
cs@d5421:~$
But I noticed another thing. When I switch away from the terminal, e.g. into
another terminal, and then switch back into the terminal with the translate
command everything looks good and the output is in a seperate line.
Strange...

I had the same behaviour also with commands that output more then one line,
e.g. with apt. Maybe there is something wrong with refreshing the screen,
because everything seems to be fine when moving to another window
and back again in the window where the problem occured.

Yes.

Yes, thats exactly what I am doing.

No, I don't. But maybe I have some mate-terminal settings that cause this
problems. I've resetted mate-terminal with the following command now to make
sure that no mate-terminal settings cause this strange problems:
dconf reset -f /org/mate/terminal/
