Bash Version: 3.2 Patch Level: 9 Release Status: release Description: Unicode composed characters in the shell prompt result in strange cursor behaviour when the prompt contains xterm escape codes. I'm not sure if this is a Bash bug or a terminal bug, but I've tried this in several terminals (xterm, konsole) and in the text console, and it occurs with all of them. Repeat-By: 1. PS1="\w\[\033[0m\]" 2. mkdir n̈ (Note that the above is U+006E U+0308) 3. cd n̈ (At this point you will see the cursor is in the wrong place -- it's shifted four characters to the right.) 4. start typing anything -- the cursor flies wildly all over the line
