Centos 5.8 and RedHat 5.3 terminals strange behaviour
Hello,
I have following problem. I have Centos 5.8 ( Final ) on Virtual Box.
I noticed very strange behavior of the terminals when resizing them.
My default shell is tcsh .
Let's assume that we have trial script try.csh with text in it:
If I execute the command
First following text appears:
If now I resize the terminal nothing happens, which should be the case.
But if I execute the command
First same text appears:
And now if I again change the size of the terminal the text is changed to:
So it seems that sourced program considers resizing of the terminal like as [ Enter ] key is typed. In the company where I work we have RedHat5.3 servers and RedHat4.7 server, on the RH5.3 this problem is also existing, which is not the case for RH4.7 ones.
It seems that the issue is not caused from the terminal emulator itself.
Because in Centos5.8 I have this issue using Terminal, konsole and xterm.
In RedHat5.3 I have the issue using konsole, xterm and gnome-terminal.
There isn't a "make any graphical terminal emulator send a signal on being resized" global linux setting, so I still think it's the terminals in question that are responsible.
Possibly you could find out what data is being read, and modify your program to ignore that signal?

Is the behavior of the sed statement expected ? Or is this a bug in sed ?
