Package: bash
Version: 3.0-5
I've been working in directories with really long names, and my 80x60
pterm is being screwy when things get REALLY, REALLY, long. At one point
^L would not clear up this mess:
darjeeling:~/devel/kernel/kernel-2.4/source/kernel-source-2.4.27-2.4.27/debian/patches
er-ioctl.patch.gz| filterdiff -i '*mm/vmalloc.c' | colordiff |less -Rappe
Really, it should be saying
darjeeling:~/devel/kernel/kernel-2.4/source/kernel-source-2.4.27-2.4.27/debian/patches{0}$ zcat /usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/device-mapper/linux-2.4.26-devmapper-ioctl.patch.gz | filterdiff -i '*mm/vmalloc.c' | colordiff | less -R
Bash can go and add all the newlines it wants, but at least it should not
hide what I am trying to type. I experienced this kind of thing in bash 2.x
as well - ^L would correct it.
One thing which might make a difference: i use shopt -s checkwinsize in
my .bashrc. I don't think there's any correlation, though.
Thanks
