Hi,

Maxim Cournoyer <maxim.cournoyer@gmail.com> skribis:

I’m afraid there’s not much we can do: terminal emulators are supposed
to ignore ANSI sequences they don’t understand.

My recollection is that there was a bug in libvte back then:

  https://issues.guix.gnu.org/38940#6-lineno18

That bug mentions a much older VTE though, so I wonder if it’s a newer
regression?
