In some occasion. Arrow key doesn't work at all

[azzamsa]

Hi.

I use broot 24/7. In some occasion. Arrow key doesn't work at all. I need to restart my terminal.

logs; broot.log.clean.txt

Steps:

• 1. BROOT_LOG=debug br ~
• 2. hit arrow
• 3. quit

Note: space cd works but not arrows.

OS: Fedora Linux 36 (Workstation Edition) x86_64
Kernel: 5.19.12-200.fc36.x86_64
Shell: zsh 5.8.1
DE: GNOME 42.5
WM: Mutter

❯ broot --version
broot 1.16.0

@azzamsa Is that something new on the last version(s) ? Or did you see this problem before ? What terminal do you use ? Is that for all 4 arrow keys ? And only those keys ?

I have the same issue in v1.15.0. I thought it was my terminal. So I migrate from wezterm 20220909-090307-9bcc4e0b to GNOME Terminal Version 3.44.1 for GNOME 42. But the issue persist. Even after moving to broot v1.16.0.

However, the issue pops up only in some occasion, but in the same $HOME directory. So. it might hard to debug.

Typing works, Clicking works, but not arrow. During the videos I hit all the arrow keys, but it is invisible. I couldn't find any simmilar app to screenkey in wayland.

In my case, Broot stops recognizing arrow keys after execution: "$SHELL" and exit from it.

Exit with Ctrl-D caused the arrows keys to freeze, but typed exit is works fine.
