[Bug 1443852] Re: Display bug for editing lines with full-width characters

 

The trailing space doesn't show up as excess whitespace is removed on
launchpad, however it was necessary to replicate the bug.

Title:
  Display bug for editing lines with full-width characters

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm not entirely sure this isn't a bug with bash, instead of gnome-
  terminal.

  Full-width character, followed by at least one full word with a space
  after it.

  Example: あa a

  With trailing space.

  Typing before the full-width character causes the 'あ' to be pushed to
  next line, with a blank space on previous line though if selected and
  copied it will actually produce a space.

  The 'あ' occupies two columns on the new line, but characters after the
  first a are only moved one column to the right. The first a, or the
  first character after the 'あ' including a space, is pushed two columns
  to the right, covering the second character after the 'あ'.

  A similar bug occurs when deleting characters before the 'あ', except
  no trailing space is required. A character is duplicated but might be
  first letter of first word on second line, or last letter of next
  word. Duplicating one letter as soon as 'あ' goes to previous line is
  easy to replicate; duplicating other letters as further characters
  before 'あ' are deleted might only happen after resetting the line
  using up arrow then down arrow, but actually just because of forward
  bug because displayed characters change after pressing up then down.
  Second word on line only seems to be affected if no other words after
  it.
