After some discussion with Bruce Evans, I've decided to submit the following
tiny patch for /sys/i386/isa/syscons.c:
*** syscons.c.orig Thu Jan 12 09:52:45 1995
--- syscons.c Thu Jan 12 09:53:13 1995
***************
*** 2100,2110 ****
/* Print only printables */
*scp->crtat = (scp->term.cur_attr | scr_map[c]);
scp->crtat++;
! /*
! * Wrap at the *LAST* column, not the last column
! * minus one!!!! Arrrghhh!!!
! */
! if (++scp->xpos > /* = */ scp->xsize) {
scp->xpos = 0;
scp->ypos++;
}
--- 2100,2106 ----
/* Print only printables */
*scp->crtat = (scp->term.cur_attr | scr_map[c]);
scp->crtat++;
! if (++scp->xpos >= scp->xsize) {
scp->xpos = 0;
scp->ypos++;
}
This patch backs out the 'cursor wraps at wrong place' fix I had bundled
in with my NOBLINK_CURSOR mods. Apparently this change breaks elvis and
bash (although bash's problems appear to be bash's own fault -- this is
version 1.14.2 we're talking about here). The NOBLINK_CURSOR mods don't
seem to be a problem. (They better not be. :)
I made this change originally to avoid some trouble I was having with a VAX
that steadfastly insisted on wrapping at the wrong place when using ANSI
terminal mode (SET TERM/DEV=UNKNOWN/ANSI). I guess what's good for the VAX
isn't good for everyone else.
If anyone else has noticed problems with this, please speak up.
