gdb-6.4 is not working properly for input 'q'

gdb-6.4 is not working properly for input 'q'

[Dharmosoth Seetharam]

Hi,

I am using the gdb-6.4

I have set the height with 24 
width with 80 and enabled the pagination.

for info threads command
the output is more than one page, 
Here it is asking me the following message ,

---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---


When i entered 'q' it won't quit for some time.

I have observed that, When the last printed line on
the screen is having more than 80 characters then only
it is misbahaving. If the last printed line has < 80
chars then it is working fine.

What could be the problem ???

Thanks
RAM

Please try using GDB 6.6 or GDB HEAD from CVS, and let us know if the
bug is still present.  Thanks.

Hi, 

The following result was the effect of "info threads"
command

Architecture: x86_64 , Linux kernel : 2.6.7 and 2.6.20



34 process 541  0xffffffffa017544e in ?? ()
  33 process 540  schedule_timeout
(timeout=1101144554856)
    at kernel/timer.c:1164
  32 process 493  md_thread (arg=0xffffffff8068c800)
at drivers/md/md.c:4526
  31 process 384  schedule_timeout
(timeout=9223372036854775807)
---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to
quit---q
 at kernel/timerQuit
  30 process 383  schedule_timeout
(timeout=1100444515608)
    at kernel/timer.c:1164
  29 process 382  0xffffffff801656b7 in worker_thread
(__cwq=0x100fb134650)
    at include/linux/sched.h:1163
  28 process 381  0xffffffff801656b7 in worker_thread
(__cwq=0x100fb134190)
    at include/linux/sched.h:1163



It displays the --- continue Or quit --- 
I have entered the 'q' (want to stop scrolling).

But, it shows the "Quit" and continues to scroll down.

We can observe that - the last line (24th line) on
cosole has a wrapped text (ie "at kernel/").

Please update me with the change.

Thanks
RAM
