Bash Version: 5.1
Patch Level: 4
Release Status: release
Description:
When using ctrl-R to search in the command history, Bash highlights
the searched string, but not its first character.
Repeat-By:
1. Open Bash, and command: abcdef
2. Click Ctrl-R, and type: bcde
Expected behavior: The command "abcdef" is shown on the command line,
and "bcde" is highlighted.
Observed behavior: The command "abcdef" is shown on the command line,
and "cde" is highlighted.
I can't reproduce this. I think it depends on how your terminal emulator
displays the cursor.
