Re: bash 4.4.18 return to new line

[Alexander Kozlenkov]

I changed my PS1 to:
(cmd):09:37:53:sah4ez@PC001:~$ printenv PS1
\e[1;95m\t\]\e[0m:\]\e[0;92m\u@\h\]\e[0m:\]\e[0;34m\w\a\]\]\e[0m$ \]

But line break still does not work:
ffffff09:37:56:sah4ez@PC001:~$
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Else I have the file:
$ cat ~/.inputrc
set show-mode-in-prompt on
set vi-ins-mode-string \1\e[32;1m\2(ins)\1\e[0m:\2
set vi-cmd-mode-string \1\e[34;1m\2(cmd)\1\e[0m:\2

If I removed this '~/.inpurtrc' file, and set to PS1:
\t:\u@\h:\w\a$
Line break continues does not work:
ffff7:05:sah4ez@PC001:~$
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

As you can see number of 'f' letters changed after which began input from
start line.
