           Summary: long commands wrapped on the same line
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: zeylie gmail com


Version:           Konsole: 1.6 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

After some playing with color prompt (yes, i saw bug 28273, but i think it's not in this case) long commands in Konsole started to wrap on the same line, messing with propmt.
In my ~/.bashrc i have:
export PS1='\[\e[36;40m\]\h\[\e[37;40m\]:\[\e[0m\]\w\[\e[32;40m\]\$\[\e[0m\] '
escaped correctly. In normal shell (from ssh to myhost or Alt+Fn) everything works fine.
resetting all prompts and restarting kde didnt fix the problem.

when i fire up konsole, with TERM set to xterm from "configure konsole" menu, export proves that:

myhost:~$ export | grep TERM
declare -x TERM="xterm"
myhost:~$

but long commands wrap on the same line.
if i redeclare TERM in the end of my .bashrc with something like:

if [ "TERM" == "xterm" ];
then 
     export TERM=xterm
fi

, or manually enter first command 'export TERM=xterm' (but export shows it's already set!) -- everything begin to work fine.

if i enter "export", then copy PS1, then enter "export <paste PS1 here>", lines still wrapped incorrectly. but if i enter "export | grep PS1" everything start to work fine. Just noticed that even if i enter "export | grep wtf " or "export | [some command here]" everything again start to work fine ;-)

if i fire up konsole from another like "konsole --tn xterm" it inherits the bug, and "resetting TERM" fix works too, while export at start still shows 'declare -x TERM="xterm"'.

myhost:~$ konsole -v
Qt: 3.3.5
KDE: 3.5.0
Konsole: 1.6

Debian unstable. (it's version, not diagnosis ;-)

that's all i think. it least hope to make you smile anyway ;)
