I'll see if I can make that replay (it "should" work) > I recall the basic step to reproduce the bug: > 1. Run a program that generates very long lines, such as make on MPFR > (and wait a bit to have sufficient data in the terminal). I'll look into that. For my quick check, I did an "ls -l /usr/bin", and clicked on the singly-wrapped lines showing symbolic links. (I also tried it with your environment settings ;-) Your picture shows you're using a color-make (will try that). I did notice the clock in the prompt - makes me wonder if it is writing out to the margin and in some way confusing the xterm. Is that a separate program, or part of bash? thanks -- Thomas E.
