not seen on linux 3.2.29, x.org 1.12.3, twm.
from plan9port.
Reproducible here using 9term, bash and rio. I don't know if the same happens with rc.
Linux 4.3.3 (x86_64)
from plan9port.
On openbsd, the bug does not happen if using the rc shell
from plan9port.
ah. :) yes i have seen this before. bash, ksh, and i imagine most other shells put the terminal into raw mode. you'll want to select 'cook' from the mb2 menu to get them to play nice. or, the shells themselves may have some option, or there may be some suitable setting for $TERM.
edit: i posted without thinking. i'm not sure why you all have problems. if i start 9term ksh -l
then it works for me and so does cat; no hidden typing. ditto for 9term bash -l
. then again i am running quite old versions of everything. my ksh is 'Version JM 93t+ 2010-06-21' from 2010, bash is 4.2.37 from 2011, p9p from april. my isp is restricting http at present, otherwise i'd upgrade p9p & try again.

Indeed, if I select the "cook" mode the problem goes away. Also, $TERM is set to 'dumb' by default under 9term. If I set it to say, vt100, the problem also goes away. But I am pretty sure having the apps believe they are running under vt100 when we are under 9term is not the best idea.
Any suggestion about some suitable $TERM value so that I don't have to select "cook" every time?

hmm, interestingly there is the "9term" option under the possible $TERM values. But still, it does not make the bug here related go away. Although it seem to fix some things. For example, if I open "top" under 9term with $TERM set to "dumb", the terminal just closes. Whereas if I set $TERM to "9term", it presents an correct output.

It looks like this behaviour is documented on 9term man page:
9term changes behavior according to the terminal settings of
the running programs. Most programs run with echo enabled.
In this mode, 9term displays and allows editing of the
input. Some programs, typically those reading passwords,
run with echo disabled. In this mode, 9term passes keys-
trokes through directly, without echoing them or buffering
until a newline character. These heuristics work well in
many cases, but there are a few common ones where they fall
short. First, programs using the GNU readline library typi-
cally disable terminal echo and perform echoing themselves.
The most common example is the shell bash(1). Disabling the
use of readline with ``set +o emacs'' [sic] usually restores
the desired behavior. Second, remote terminal programs such
as ssh(1) typically run with echo disabled, relying on the
remote system to echo characters as desired. Plan 9's ssh
has a -C flag to disable this, leaving the terminal in
``cooked'' mode. For similar situations on Unix, 9term's
button 2 menu has an entry to toggle the forced use of
cooked mode, despite the terminal settings. In such cases,
it is useful to run ``stty -echo'' on the remote system to
avoid seeing your input twice.
set +o emacs #fixed the problem here
from plan9port.
Since I didn't find a way to automate "set +o emacs" (putting it on my .profile wasn't enough), I ended up setting SHELL=rc on my .profile so that 9term uses the rc shell instead of ksh.
from plan9port.
i always use it with rc. i set $SHELL in my 9
script, and i always start 9term with 9
.
i'm generally happy with chording cut/paste rather than using history, and i prefer rc's syntax for lots of things. i make functions for oft-repeated commands. you may however wish to ln -s .profile .bashrc
, or find some other hack to always source .profile or to initialize non-login shells.
