I've noticed that tmux can be "frozen" by doing something like this:
$ echo -e '\e_' This probably shouldn't be much of a surprise given the definition of the state machine used in input.c, and maybe it's considered OK. A quick test show that xterm also has this problem, but VTE (gnome-terminal) doesn't. I wanted to call attention to this in case it is cause for concern. In case it's not clear what is happening when it is "frozen", sending a prefix for certain states will cause the terminal to remain in that state until a termination sequence (usually just anything beginning with ESC) is encountered in the input. The lack of a shell prompt makes it impossible (or not?) to send anything to the input stream to cause a return to the default state. -Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
