Description Robert Pattis CLA 2017-03-28 02:26:12 EDT
Created attachment 267488 [details]
Example of too long command with cursor at the end of the line

When a command (including path) is longer than 80 characters, it gets cut off.
The cursor moves on, but no characters are shown. The command, however, executes as intended.
In the example picture (see attachment), the black rectangle at the end of the line is the cursor.
The last part of the command should be "--spec false", however you can only see "--spe".

I am using Eclipse Neon.3 on a Windows 10 PC.

I enabled the "legacy console" in Windows and it now seems to work. So it probably has something to do with the new console features.

The Terminal component of the Eclipse Ecosystem has a new home. The Terminal is now part of the Eclipse CDT project[1].

This change means a new Git repo[2], P2 site[3] and Bugzilla component. The terminal will continue to be delivered as part of the quarterly Simultaneous Release of Eclipse as well.

The marketplace entry[4] had not been updated in a few years. It will once again install the latest release of the terminal on the latest release of the whole IDE (currently 2020-03).

If this bug is no longer relevant, please feel free to comment or close the bug. If you can confirm if this issues still occurs in the latest release please do let me know in a comment.

(This comment was added to all open terminal bugs along with changing the Product/component pair to CDT/terminal.)
