Hello, I have been trying to solve a particular issue what has annoyed me for some time.
It's an uncommon request, apparently, and a little complicated. I will simply explain the issue -- as best I can. When I backspace in gnome-terminal (or any terminal in linux), I would like the current line I am working on (I have not yet pressed carriage return), to reprint to the console, if I have received any new content to the terminal output. I am not sure if that description is adequate enough. An example, if I type say ping 8.8.8.8 at the terminal, I receive, as expected lines from the ping reply. If i type anything into the terminal window, my text shows up, but as I receive new data, it becomes unclear as it gets lost in the replies. On MacOS (and in the past in debian), when I backspace, my current text (before any CR) is auto refilled/reprinted to the console. That is exactly the behavior that i want. I remember having this same issue in the past, and I had to change some configuration settings (not exactly where or what, unfortunately), but i think to .bashrc. As best as I can figure, it might have to do with stty? And setting it to "reprnt" on the backspace? But, I really have no idea. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
