Since upgrading to 2.18, gnome-terminal has a display problem that causes problems with vi and other screen oriented applications. To reproduce, vi a file with more lines than the gnome-terminal window and delete the first line. The screen appears unchanged except the next line of the file is displayed on the last line (which would normally be blank). Refreshing with ^L fixes the display. Anyone else have this problem? Before filing a bug with gnome, I thought I'd see if its my build. TERM is set to xterm and I'm using the standard FreeBSD termcap file. I upgraded via "portupgrade -a" from gnome 2.16.0. I've been testing with a 24 line gnome-terminal window, but it appears to fail with other window sizes. After deleting the line, vi sends: ESC[H (move to top) ESC[23B (move to last line) ^J (scroll up since we're on the last line) ESC[A (move up one line) display next line of file In gnome-terminal 2.18, the ESC[A appears to roll the scroll region down one line leaving the cursor where it was instead of moving the cursor up one line. -- Bob
