tty control sequences

tty control sequences

[evilborisnet]

With current emacs CVS, when I start a new tty frame from Putty 
(running remotely), Emacs consistently inserts "0;136;0c" into the 
buffer.  Lossage shows: ESC [ > 0 ; 1 3 6 ; 0 c C-@ C-h l

There was some discussion on this list of this, but I thought it was 
resolved.

Also, when I try to suspend with C-z, I get a "suspended (signal)" 
message priinted in a seemingly random place across the screen, 
followed by the prompt (possibly on the next line), and only then the 
cursor moves to the bottom of the screen.

Any ideas?

A possible solution has been determined, but no fix has been checked
in yet.

I can't reproduce this. Can you please send a precise description on
how you get this starting from "emacs -Q"?

Thanks.  I find it does not do this predictably.  For example, whether
running it within/outside screen may matter.  Last couple of times I
tried it it worked ok inside of screen, but failed outside of screen
(I am referring to where I run emacsclient).  Might be a timing issue,
as mentioned in an earlier thread.

Start emacs any way you like (I tried emacs-cvs from console,
or emacs-cvs -nw from a putty running remotely).  Now go to another
window (I tried another putty, or another screen (or whatever it is 
called)
in screen), and type /path/to/emacslient -t. Now issue a C-z in it and 
I see
what I described.  Sometimes.  I cannot reproduce it reliably now.
It happens occasionally, though.

I have never seen what you describe. But if you find a reliable way of
reproducing this, please post it here with all the details and all the
steps needed.
