Bug#639281: worklog: does not survive resizing of the terminal
Just getting around to looking at this now, because I use worklog every
day, and haven't had any trouble with it.
I can resize the window in most cases without any trouble, and never get
continuous beeping.
A couple times, when I make the window really small, I did get the program
to hang and it needed a ctrl-c to get out.
I suspect the problem is that when the terminal is resized, "funny" ASCII
control codes or something are being sent, and that is what is causing the
beeping (and some of the beeping was removed in 1.8-6, so that might
explain why I'm not hearing the beeping).
In one instance during my testing, the program did recover, and so my
guess is that it is just taking a while to process the keystrokes, and so
it would recover without being killed, I'm not sure.
Note, that the fix for bug# 630570 might make this worse, since keystrokes
are processed slower...
