Description Egmont Koblinger 2017-11-18 16:21:02 UTC 
Have blinking cursor by default (GNOME-wide setting).

Change temporarily to a non-blinking one (e.g. underline: echo -ne '\e[4 q').

Hard or soft reset (e.g. the reset command, or echo -ne '\e[!p').

Notice that the default cursor shape is restored, but it doesn't start blinking. Even a keypress, focus in/out or an explicit cursor reset (echo -ne '\e[ q') doesn't make it blink.
