Comment 4 for bug 188245

Sorry, I didn't get your previous comment from 2008/6/24. But I got this last email. I don't know how to reopen this bug report -- can you do that or let me know how?

Yes, this still happens. It's hard for me to find a terminal window where this doesn't occur. I start my terminal windows by calling /usr/bin/gnome-terminal with a title (-t) and a geometry (--geometry). I managed to get one terminal window into a state where it DID NOT produce this behavior. I ran stty sane in both terminal windows (one window which reproduces this behavior, one which doesn't). Then I ran strace and captured what's going on when I press F3, followed by ctl-c. I've attached the outputs. There are 4 attachments in one tar ball:

good_f3 (strace of F3 in the terminal which DOES NOT produce this behavior)
good_ctl_c (strace of ctl-c in the terminal which DOES NOT produce this behavior)
good_f3_ctl_c (strace of F3 followed by ctl-c in the terminal which DOES NOT produce this behavior)
bad_f3_ctl_c (strace of F3 followed by ctl-c in the terminal which DOES produce this behavior)

Unfortunately, I don't know how I got the "good" terminal in the state where it doesn't produce this behavior.
