Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 13.10 backspace in terminal only deletes one byte of multibyte character.
For example: # cat > /tmp/test tы<backspace>t # cat /tmp/test t�t # hexdump -C /tmp/test 74 d1 74 0a Where 'ы' is a russian letter (D18B in hexadecimal form). You may see that only second byte of multibyte character was deleted by backspace. I saw similar problem for ssh, but it's not the case. Here I'm not using ssh, just normal Terminal session. ** Affects: terminal (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: nautilus (Ubuntu) => terminal (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1304534 Title: Backspace doesn't remove utf-8 multibyte characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/terminal/+bug/1304534/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
