Scrolling the cursor outside the command area, then return, your command will always register as invalid about cx16shell HOT 5 CLOSED

Suggested workaround in the shell:

1. Check the first character of the command. If it is $ or space, then trim that character
2. Repeat until the first character in the command is neither $ or space.

what about filtering out cursor up/down keys from the input? There's no reason to be able to move the cursor around the screen

the filename entry box in the Paint tool does this too

Yeah, you should do that if you know how. I though the reason this wasn't done yet is because you didn't know how to do that

Meanwhile up and down keys could be used for selecting previous commands, like on other shells out there

The command history indeed is something that could be added at a later point perhaps. I mean, there's little other use for the cursor up/down keys in a program like this, I suppose.

edit: hmm, the up/down blocking should probably only be done if we actually have that history buffer. So Tom's suggestion makes a bit more sense to work around the kernal input issue.
