Title:
Backspace doesn't remove utf-8 multibyte characters
Status in “bash” package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in “terminal” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
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.
