[screen-devel] [bug #43145] Text order marks cause corrupted display

[Axel Beckert]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #43145 (project screen):

In https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655589#34 the following
reproducer has been posted by Vincent Lefevre:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
In a 80-column xterm, execute "screen bash", then

  for i in `seq 60` ; do printf 'a\u061c\u061c' ; done ; echo

then reduce the terminal window by one line. This has the effect
to duplicate the prompt and move the status line 2 lines above.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This is reproducible in 4.9.0-1 as currently in Debian Unstable/Testing.

I additionally noticed that, if you had multiple terminals open in a split
screen layout, the layout is gone and only one window is displayed inside the
Screen session. This can be simply reproduced by pressing "C-a S" before
executing the above command, but might need a hardstatus status line to be
present.

In my case I have

hardstatus alwayslastline "%H: %n %t | %w | %l | %c:%s"

configured.
