I routinely use the xterm "log to file" feature to capture terminal output.
When I do this with or without screen 4.9.1, lines are terminated with
carriage return, e.g:
ice 1423 % cat -v Xterm-4.9.1.log
^M^M
fun 80 % ^M^M
fun 80 % ^M^M
fun 80 % date^M^M
Sun Sep 1 09:10:51 PDT 2024^M
fun 81 % date^M^M
Sun Sep 1 09:10:52 PDT 2024^M
But when I do the same with 5.0.0, I see escape sequences instead of carriage
returns:
ice 1424 % cat -v Xterm-5.0.0.log
^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 4 % ^[[m^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 4 % ^[[m^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 4 % ^[[m^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 4 % ^[[mdate^[[34;1H
Sun Sep 1 09:09:58 PDT 2024^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 5 % ^[[mdate^[[34;1H
Sun Sep 1 09:09:59 PDT 2024^[[34;1H
^[[1mice 6 % ^[[mice 1425 %
I don't have an example but I've also see 5.0.0 use escape sequences instead
of the "space" character when capturing hex dumps like this:
109.179 AA EB 89 B9 B2 01 02 44 6F 77 6E F3
Is there a way to go back to the 4.X behavior?
