Which ANSI escape sequences tell the terminal to garble its content, tell it to switch encoding, or might cause such a phenomenon?
Did you try the script? It garbles even the prompt (e.g., "[EMAIL PROTECTED] computer:~$"). Checking the "Terminal -> Set Character Encoding" menu reveals that the encoding is the same, before and after the garble: UTF-8. -- If a program/script outputs lots of binary data to screen, the whole terminal session becomes scrambled https://launchpad.net/bugs/49058 -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
