tail as a garbage input. To reproduce, run "sleep 3" and
hold down Down_Arrow key until sleep runs.
With debugging log enabled, the following can be seen:
entered get_key_code(no_delay:0)
c=tty_lowlevel_getch()=27
push_char(27) !0
c=xgetch_second()=91
push_char(91) !0
2 c=tty_lowlevel_getch()=66
push_char(66)
seq_buffer[0]:27 <---- the saved Down Arrow sequence "ESC [ B"
seq_buffer[1]:91
seq_buffer[2]:66
seq_buffer[3]:0
pending_keys!=NULL. m=-1
d=*pending_keys++=27
d=ALT(*pending_keys++)=ALT(91)=8283
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ we misinterpret "ESC [ B" as "ESC ["
return correct_key_code(8283)
entered get_key_code(no_delay:0)
pending_keys!=NULL. m=-1
d=*pending_keys++=66
^^^^^^^^^^^^ we think user pressed "B"
return correct_key_code(66)
With this patch, no bogus "input" is generated.
Longer unknown sequences need an additional fix, coming next.
