Dear List,
Ever cat a binary file by accident and your
terminal gets all screwed up.
I had a developer on the Perl 6 chat line give me
a tip on how to unscrew your terminal and set it
back to normal. (He way helping me do a binary
read from the keyboard.)

Note: it is <ctr><J>, not "enter".

Make "\033]0;" the first bit of your prompt. Never worry about it again.
ESC-0 sets the terminal to have no attribute bits set. So it clears funny
display. I've had that as a standard part of my prompts for decades, even back
in the CP/M days.
