Replying to [ticket:6900 pcpa]:
[Sorry for replying to myself]
> After starting the notebook, and using a newer pexpect, try some
command that causes a background processes to be created, like the first
singular example in the tutorial.
> A screenshot of the problem, that happens the first time a background
process is started is:

> but, as also shown in the screenshot, in subsequent evaluations, it
works correctly in the notebook.
>
> Since it always works correct in the terminal interface of sage, I
suspect it is an issue in the notebook/worksheet code. And in that case,
it actually may be a different way to debug problems in the sage pexpect
interface (also a suggestion :-)
For people familiar with the notebook code, I think what may be also a
good hint as to what may be wrong is that the extra noise in the output is
not "really noise", but the "dancing" / and \ characters that go to the
browser titlebar.
