bug#1469: Does anybody working on it?

[richardeng]

I have spent some time on it. Fix is not found yet.
I'm sure:
1. problem only in M-x term and M-x ansi-term(both in term.el), M-x shell or M-x eshell(in shell.el or eshell/*.el) works right.
2. The default setting is term-char-mode in term.el, if you change it to term-line-mode, no such problem
3. Problem should be wrong local state(position or coloumn/width/height limitation) after wrap action in function term-emulate-terminal

It's real complex, if somebody is working on it, please share what you found.
Thank you

And Cyril Bouthors, you can temporarily use M-x shell instead of M-x term.

Reverting this patch seems to fix the problem:

2008-09-24  Andreas Politz  <politza@fh-trier.de>  (tiny change)

            * term.el (term-emulate-terminal): Encode input string
            before
            checking its length.


Another thing, the original bug does not seem to be archived on
gmane.emacs.bug, just this reply...
