Description Thomas Hartwig 2003-08-15 16:26:32 UTC

(This bug report was generated by Bug Buddy 2.2.104)
Description of Problem:
I use the "zsh", with special parameters for
setting the title of a
terminal:

    precmd() { rehash; print -Pn "\e]0;%m: %~
(%n)\a" }
    preexec() { print -Pn "\e]0;%m: $*\a" }

I don't know if this affects the problems but it
seems to contribute to
it.

However my example below is using the above
functions very heavy but
the
terminal crashes too, if there is a lot of output.
I think it might be a memory lack somewhere.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open a second tab and start: top 
2. Go back to the first opened tab and run the
following code:
for ((i=0;i<10000;i++)); do echo "Null..."; done
3. Repeat step two until the terminal crashes

Actual Results:


Expected Results:


How often does this happen?
Several times a day.

This stack must be somehow corrupt, as the
eel_pango_layout_set_font_desc_from_string is never used in
gnome-terminal. The wierd thing is that the 3 dups have exactly the
same bt...
