Re: mutt/2638: mutt + external pager displays hidden prompt



On Thursday, December 21 at 02:35 PM, quoth muttbug@xxxxxxxxxxx:
When using external pager of any type, Mutt provides a faulty key command prompt before redisplaying the index. This happens even when 'set wait_key=no'. It appears to be debugging code that should not visible to the user.

Eh?

How-To-Repeat:
When using an external pager, such as 'set pager=gnuclient', mutt will display a prompt after the pager exits, rather than displaying the index list. The prompt appears as follows (with a blank, black terminal) as soon as the pager application exits.

   Command:

You are describing the correct behavior for when $prompt_after is set. Add the following to your muttrc to change this behavior:

   unset prompt_after
