If this happens it is because the panning command line feature may need to repaint the line. Even if it is happening, I am surprised that you can see it. Are you on a very slow connection?

I have taken a look at the way in which the command processor repaints the line on entering a command to ensure that the panning command line is correctly displayed. I can see that we could optimise it a bit to remove the repaint if the line is not panned and the command is not bing recalled from the command stack but I am still surpised that you notice anything on the terminal.
What terminal emulator do you use and what terminal type have you selected?

Using Accuterm as the terminal emulator. Have tried numerous term
types (vt100,vt320, vp series, etc.)
all with the same result. Again, whats unusual is that the localhost
connection (also using Accuterm with one
of the aforementioned term types) does behave correctly.
Thanks,
Gary

It's probably not worth taking this any further as we have made a change for release 2.9-9 (this week if all goes to plan) that will not repaint the line unless it needs to do so to show the command correctly after use of panning, an overlong command or recalling a command from the history.
