After trying again. the problem seems to occur only when one resizes the terminal window. So, a typescript doesn't help. It seems to be a problem similar to what I had already reported under other conditions: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=738794 The problem disappears if the xterm window is redrawn, e.g. via the RefreshWindow fvwm command: RefreshWindow Causes the chosen window to redraw itself. All pending updates of the window's style and look are applied immediately. E.g. if Style or TitleStyle commands were issued inside a fvwm function. To reproduce the bug, use xterm with the 7x13 font. Consider the following mbox file: ------------------------------------------------------------------ >From [email protected] Thu Dec 8 16:50:47 2016 Subject: =?utf-8?Q?character_like_?= =?utf-8?B?8J+NuA==?= on ------------------------------------------------------------------ Open it with: mutt -F /dev/null -R -f test.mbox Then reduce the xterm window width so that the second column of the double-width character is removed (but not the first column). For instance, you should get initially: q:Quit d:Del u:Undel s:Save m:Mail r:Reply g:Group ?:Help 1 N Dec 08 [email protected] ( 0K) character like XY on where "XY" is the double-width character (here it appears as a wide question mark in a circle since the character isn't probably in the font). So, reduce the xterm window width so that the first line is: q:Quit d:Del u:Undel s:Save m:Mail r:Reply g:Grou Here, the second line is: 1 N Dec 08 [email protected] ( 0K) character like but some pixels on the right of the last column are visible (a bit like in bug 738794 mentioned above). -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - 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)
