Bracketed paste should be per-terminal
Last modified: 2014-06-26 15:08:15 UTC
Bracketed paste mode (\e[?2004h) should be per-terminal (as it is for xterm), not per-screen. Originally reported at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734571 https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/3207
Created attachment 275844 [details] [review] fix (Waiting for Thomas telling us whether "reset" should reset this mode. In xterm it does not.)
(Thomas says he'll consider resetting bracketed paste mode too. I consider this an improvement in vte (and konsole, putty, perhaps others) over xterm and so I left it this way.) The main bug is fixed now.
I have the same problem with PAC Manager, which uses vte-0.28.2-10.fc20 on my system. Could you please backport the patch to vte-0.28.2 too?
vte-0.28 is no longer maintained. (If we started to backport fixes we already have in 0.36/master, we'd need to backport about a hundred. As far as I can tell, none of the vte developers have any interest/time doing this. Instead, PAC Manager (whatever that is) should be updated to use Gtk3/vte0.3x.)
PAC Manager uses Perl/GTK, which apparently uses an old vte. Just for someone needing it I am adding a patch for vte-0.28.2 (Fedora 20).
