Bug#80633: joe: When running inside a screen(1), cursor often placed in wrong column

I couldn't ever reproduce it as such - it just happened occasionally. I'm no longer sure (it was six years ago, after all) if it's the same issue, but in the meantime I've found that enabling 'meta as-is' causes display corruption if the file contains 'weird' non-printable characters. While this is arguably a feature (after all, I asked for those characters to be displayed), the problem is that this seems to be the only way to see accented international characters too. So fixing this would involve displaying printable characters but suppressing (or escaping) nonprintable ones, like vim does.

Actually, to get accented characters, you just need to set up your locale right, because our joe has had locale support since November 2000. :) Can you verify that it works for you? -- 2.

Yes, with the correct locale, accented characters are displayed correctly. (Strange that I never realized this - but why should I have, when I had meta as-is turned on anyway? :) So apparently this is another bug fixed then. I'll have to report some more lest you forget my name. :) Andras -- Andras Korn korn at chardonnay.math.bme.hu http://chardonnay.math.bme.hu/~korn/ QOTD: Death is nature's way of giving you a rest. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
