bug#16470: 24.3.50; term mode and newlines with some window configuratio


From: Constantine Vetoshev
Subject: bug#16470: 24.3.50; term mode and newlines with some window configurations
Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 15:15:43 -0800

Working with a build from today's Git mirror, revision 41c2162. Running Emacs 
with -Q.

Something is wrong with term.el's handling of newlines in some window 
configurations.

The following steps reproduce the bug consistently on my machine:

0. Make sure you have no .zshrc file in your home directory.
1. Start Emacs (with -Q).
2. Stretch the frame so it has enough room for three reasonably large vertical 
splits.
3. Make 3 equally-sized vertical windows (C-x 3, C-x 3, C-x 3, C-x =).
4. Put your cursor in the right-most window.
5. Run M-x term, then select /bin/zsh as your shell. You should immediately see 
the inverted '%' which indicates newline oddness with zsh. If you run any 
command, e.g., ls, you will see '%' at the end of all output.
6. Try running 'unsetopt prompt_sp' in the zsh instance. You'll see the '%' go 
away, but this is undesirable, because it means that, e.g., 'echo -n hi' does 
not work properly.

Here is where things get even more strange.

7. exit from the zsh shell and kill the *terminal* buffer.
8. C-x 1 so you have just one empty *scratch* window.
9. M-x term, select /bin/zsh again.
10. No bad '%' behavior occurs now.

To summarize: when you make three vertical windows, term.el's handling of 
newlines breaks. The behavior seems tied to window splits. I have tried this 
with term-suppress-hard-newline set to t and nil, and it does not seem to make 
a difference.
