Package: screen
Version: 4.0.3-0.3+b1
Severity: normal
Since upgrading to etch I notice that one (in some terminals even two)
characters are missing when a program running in screen switches from
bold mode back to normal mode, or from a coloured text output back
to normal colour.
I can reproduce it using the following commands:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ offbold=`tput sgr0`
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ tput bold
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ echo "test${offbold}test"
testest
Here the four first characters are bold, the three trailing characters
are not bold. Please notice the missing first 't' of the second 'test'.
This only happens in screen, therefore I suspect a bug in screen.
Please reassign the bug if you think this is caused by another
package.
