Description

The GRASS shell does not work well:

1. Cannot paste: Right button show a menu. In this terminal the menu lacks the paste function. CtrlV does not work.
2. After running a shell script, i don't get back the prompt, have to quit qgis to get another terminal.
3. The left arrow has a weird behavior, the line gets disrupted after 2 or 3 steps to the left. I general, I cannot edit the command line.
4. The 'Canc' keyworks like 'BackSpace' key

Points 1 e 4 are also in ver 0.8

I see that the TERM variable is setted 'vt100', may be 'xterm' is better but this setting must be done when the GRASS shell starts in QGIS.

Regards
Leonardo

Sorry for the mistake: the 'Canc' key is the 'Delete' key.

#4 Updated by Anne Ghisla almost 16 years ago

Status changed from Open to Closed
Resolution set to worksforme

On Windows XP Home, QGIS 1.0 preview1:
1. Paste is performed with central button (or wheel). Right button has no action. Ctrl+V does not work.
2. Arrows don't disrupt lines.
3. Delete is not recognized. It writes temporary ~.

MINGW shell still lacks of some useful features owned by Linux bash shell, but AFAIK shows no bugs.
