Title:
ANSI codes for saving/restoring attributes not supported
Status in Gnome Virtual Terminal Emulator:
Invalid
Status in vte package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
According to http://www.termsys.demon.co.uk/vtansi.htm, VT100
terminals should support these two escape sequences:
Save Cursor & Attrs <ESC>7
* Save current cursor position.
Restore Cursor & Attrs <ESC>8
* Restores cursor position after a Save Cursor.
VTE-based terminals (gnome-terminal, terminator etc) treat them as
Save Cursor <ESC>[s
* Save current cursor position.
Unsave Cursor <ESC>[u
* Restores cursor position after a Save Cursor.
i.e. attributes are actually never restored. How to reproduce:
echo -ne "\00337" # save attributes
echo -ne "\0033[7m" # reverse video
echo -ne "\00338" # restore attributes (i.e no reverse video anymore)
echo this text should not be in inversed colors
In gnome-terminal the message is displayed in reverse video. In xterm
it is displayed correctly.
Running Jaunty.
ii gnome-terminal 2.26.0-0ubuntu2
