Letters Ghosting

Open tfantina opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

For several months I've noticed when I delete some characters I get "ghost" letters, that seem to hang around. They have no effect, but they sit there which makes typing commands confusing. So if I type 'git commit' and then delete that line perhaps the "c" will persist. So I will be left with a string like this ______c_______ even though I've deleted to the beginning of the line. If I then write git commit using the old c I will get this error message: git: 'ommit' is not a git command. For it to work I'd have to type out commit again in full which leaves this looking like: git ccommit.

I've tried uninstalling all plugins and even getting rid of Oh My Zsh, reinstalled and as soon as I added wild-cherry I started having the issue again.

I am also experiencing this issue. I suspect it may be related to a some setting possibly having to do with prompt, but have just begun investigating.

I have replicated the issue in iterm2, but it does not occur in apple's default terminal application.

Alright, it looks like it's an incompatibility with zsh autocomplete in the plugins of my ~/.zshrc. When I remove the plugin, I no longer experience this issue.

This is an older issue, but hopefully this helps anyone who runs into this issue in the future.
