From f14272944803045cc18cf67342984010672e28a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Medico Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2007 05:57:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] If the title string is too big then xtermTitle() can misbehave by causing the terminal to echo some of the characters and generate a "beep" sound. This is easily triggered by doing things like `emerge world` now since all the the atoms are expanded. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=8289 --- pym/portage/output.py | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/pym/portage/output.py b/pym/portage/output.py index f4e90fb8e..ff3e27171 100644 --- a/pym/portage/output.py +++ b/pym/portage/output.py @@ -236,6 +236,11 @@ def nc_len(mystr): def xtermTitle(mystr, raw=False): if dotitles and "TERM" in os.environ and sys.stderr.isatty(): + # If the title string is too big then the terminal can + # misbehave.
