Hi, I cannot reproduce this issue on Ubuntu 16.10 with Terminator-1.90 using your config. I get a terminator window occupying the entire screen, with 2x2 terminals in an equal split. Your config seems to contain hardcoded pixel values like 3200, 1672, 1600... The exact behavior might easily

Bug#876757: gnome-terminal: does not set the underlying setting key for "show menubar"

2017-09-26 Thread Egmont Koblinger
Hi, Right click menu's "Show Menubar" by design only influences the current window (similarly to some other options there, such as selecting a Profile or toggling Read-Only). What you're looking for is the global menu's Edit -> Preferences -> "Show menubar by default in new terminals". cheers,

Bug#854149: libvte-2.91-0: x-terminals not properly compose unicode characters

2017-09-28 Thread Egmont Koblinger
Hi, This is a truly interesting bug. If you highlight and copy-paste only the printed "1" or "2" digits, you'll notice that "1" carries the combining strikethrough with it. This is one possible way of making sure that VTE's belief about where that combining accent is is correct. The problem

Hi, I cannot reproduce the issue -- in fact, I came across it on the bugs.debian.org website which is encoded in UTF-8 so it cannot represent the non-UTF-8 you're talking about. I'm copy-pasting the command but it's perfectly valid UTF-8 and no lockup happens. It would be great if you could

Hi guys, Quickly glazing through the thread, a couple of remarks: - screen/tmux indeed needs that TERM inside them is something screen-related. Forget xterm or xterm-256color, go with screen, screen-256color or screen.xterm-256color or alike. This is properly documented in their docs/faqs and

Bug#899376: gnome-terminal: Ctrl-Shift-Enter/Ctrl-Enter in MC isn't working on Wayland

2018-05-23 Thread Egmont Koblinger
Hi, Terminal emulators don't send anything special on Ctrl-(Shift-)Enter, they can only send the same newline they do on Enter. MC has a hack called X11 support: Whenever it receives a newline from the terminal emulator, it queries the X server whether any modifier is pressed at that time.

Hello, I also tried and couldn't reproduce the problem. It's probably a race condition as gnome-terminal asks to be of size 999x999, and the window manager rejects it and forces a smaller one. How do you exactly set the size from vim? Do you put these lines in vimrc, or you type these commands
