Public bug reported:
I wrote a Python 3 script which scans directory trees, and outputs
various filenames (with path) to the terminal, as the files are being
hashed. When the following filename was to be printed, gnome-terminal
stopped printing output with the cursor where the question mark would
have been printed out:
._13 Trapezoid singâ?€.mp3
When I interrupted the program using keyboard interrupt, much more
output was displayed, indicating the script had continued to run,
despite the output stopping after "â".
I navigated to the directory and tried using ls, which was able to print
the filename without issue.
I tried using: find `pwd` -name *Trapezoid*
This also displayed the filename, with full path, correctly.
I tried running the script with terminator, which had no problem
printing the filename and continuing on with the rest of the output as
expected.
Terminal output at freeze, and after keyboard interrupt shown in the
cropped/pixelized screenshots here: http://imgur.com/a/D0XRK
