** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #693013 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693013 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1115110 Title: NEL character doesn't cause gnome terminal to scroll Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Gnome terminal should interpret ESC E as NEL (0x85) (see the description of "C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters" here: http://www.xfree86.org/current/ctlseqs.html). As I understand it, NEL should be treated pretty much like LF (0x0A). In gnome terminal, if I run "echo -n -e '\eE'" near the top of the window, it prints a blank line, which is good. But if I run it when the shell prompt is already at the bottom of the window, it doesn't print a blank line. This seems wrong. By contrast, "echo -n -e '\n'" always prints a blank line.
