Summary: Deleting Arabic text in terminals in response to an
interactive command using BACKSPACE will delete the
question itself!
Product: xterm
Version: 179-1mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: i18n
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When you type any interactive command in the console (e.g. rm), you will be faced with
a question such as:
rm: remove regular file `filename'?
Now, if you switch to Arabic and type some Arabic letters then BACKSPACE to delete
them, you will delete letters from the question itself which is equal to the number of
the
typed Arabic letters. Looks as if something concerned with Arabic being double byte
and
the UTF-8 encoding. This problem is in konsole, xterm, mlterm.
