I noticed the issue just before the upgrade to bookworm (I wanted to do that for the upgrade). But I can't reproduce it in bookworm. So this may have been an old bug that has been fixed. IIRC, this was text positioning issues, perhaps when recalling commands from the history. BTW, I don't think that the preservation of $TERM is sufficient. Preserving $TERMINFO (when set) is important too. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
