Hello!
By chance, I noticed that if I view bash's man page and then press 'q'
to exit man, the prompt is colored more brightly than it is by default.
If I press enter the prompt is restored to its normal appearance. A
picture exhibiting this cosmetic glith can be viewed at
student.stunet.se/hivemind/weird_cosmetic_bug.png
Does 'stty sane' restore normal operation?
Well, I issued:
$ stty sane
$ man bash
q
..and still the same color change as exhibitedby the picutre. I hope I
ran the test as you wanted. I hadn't used the command stty before.
cygcheck.out attached. Am I the only one seeing this? If not, is it a
cosmetic bug or expected? I have made some changes to .bashrc, I can
post that to if needed but it's really just a few aliases.
If you have a coloured prompt, it could be a consequence of that interacting
with the readline bug. I don't see it here with the following versions:
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version Status
bash 3.1-8 OK
cygwin 1.5.19-4 OK
man 1.5p-1 OK
