Hello, Thomas. I was testing some bug reports and I experienced a very strange thing, mostly cosmetic. I'm not an xterm user, so I have no preferences, as far as I know.
To test: Launch xterm, and resize its width to less than the prompt
string.
Then xterm stacks the current text in the visible window. The stacking is not
right here, because every column I remove, another row appears with partial
content.
Then you enlarge xterm. A lot of partial lines have appeared. Where no
buffer
existed, now I can scroll up and down by my partial prompts.
I attach an image of the two things.
xterm version 6.8.2.dfsg.1-2 (I think that carries xterm patchset #200).
Best regards,
Ender.
