[Bug 1858293] Re: Missing repeated characters
Hello, Hello and than you for the assistance and your time. For sure I thought this was a bug because it appeared platform dependent and only associated with nano. The first thing I did was I checked my version of PuTTy which was .70 and then checked the PuTTy site and updated to PuTTy .73 and this "bug" is gone. Updating PuTTy to .73 resolved my issue. Probably the first thing I should have done, but we never quit learning. Nano is my favorite terminal editor.

[Bug 1858293] Re: Missing repeated characters
> write(1, "+-\33[7b+\33[25G", 12) = 12 This tells your terminal to draw a "+", followed by a "-" which should then be repeated seven more times (\33[7b), followed by a "+". So, nano (by way of ncurses) gives your terminal a correct sequence of codes to draw the stuff that should be drawn. But apparently your terminal (Putty) does not understand the \33[nb code and ignores it, resulting in a garbled display. Please see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46507473/ncurses-in- urxvt-does-not-print-repeating-characters. And https://invisible- island.net/ncurses/ncurses.faq.html#xterm_generic (the paragraphs after the table). The problem is in Putty: it says it is an xterm (or xterm-compatible), but it isn't. Solution: set your TERM to what it should be: putty. Look in /usr/share/terminfo/p/ for other possibilities. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1858293 Title: Missing repeated characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nano/+bug/1858293/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1858293] Re: Missing repeated characters
Thanks for reporting. Please answer the following questions. 1) From what kind of machine are you putty'ing into your Ubuntu 18.04 machines? 2) When putty'ed in, what is the output of 'env | grep TERM'? 3) When putty'ed in, please run 'strace -ewrite -s2000 /bin/nano --ignore 2>TRAIL', paste your seven-line example into nano, then press ^X N, and attach the resultant TRAIL file here. 4) When ssh'ing in from a regular GNU/Linux machine (from an xterm or from a Linux console) to your Ubuntu 18.04 machines, do you observe the same problem? 5) If you build the latest nano-4.7 on one of your 18.04 machines, does the problem still occur when putty'ing in and running nano-4.7? 6) When you putty into an Ubuntu 19.10 machine (if you can find one), does the problem occur there too? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1858293 Title: Missing repeated characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nano/+bug/1858293/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
