Yes, i can confirm this bug, thanks for the report! The bug lies within my own line editor, it doesn't occur if you compile (the devel version) with WANT_READLINE=yes or with the dumb line editor. I'm currently rewriting that "NCL" rather completely to be the Mailx-Line-Editor, but my first thought that this has to do with one of the restrictions of the NCL (which uses the maximum input linesize of the terminal as an upper limit..) isn't the root for the problem, it is still happening with the current state of the MLE, which no longer has it. Thanks for the report, i'll get back to this thread when i have found the bug! |An strace(1) shows read(2)s of one byte consuming the first line, |including the LF. ioctl(2)s and signal handling are then done.
