Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (X11/20070911) |
On recent fedora versions:
$ echo "disp(OCTAVE_VERSION)" | octave -qf > version
$ od -a version
0000000 esc [ ? 1 0 3 4 h 2 . 9 . 1 3 nl
0000017
Note the escape sequence output before the version string.
Setting TERM="" fixes it.
Looks like it is:
smm=\E[?1034h
which seems to have been added to the xterm terminfo information, which
is "turn on meta mode (8th-bit on)"
Anyone have any ideas on why this is being output?
