Originally created by @sandric on GitHub (Jun 23, 2019).

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18922.1000
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.2.1715.0

Any other software? Emacs

Steps to reproduce

In Ubuntu wsl 2 session open emacs. Try to enter some characters in new file and then press space. Try to press is couple of times, press and hold.

Expected behavior

Space characters entered as expected.

Actual behavior

Spaces not entered and cursor stuck, after second or two - spaces are entered and cursor jumps to normal. Can not reproduce in simple bash/fish commandline, for now seen only in emacs.

Ok, quick searching and I found that: https://github.com/microsoft/Terminal/issues/283. By changing TERM to "rxvt" it looks like it fixes stuck spaces issue, but instead now I don't have HOME/END/SHIFT-ARROW etc. for some reason. Although I can make workaround for this via redefining basic keystrokes, I would like to know is its knows issue, should there be fix, other TERM settings?

Ok, another update: it flawlessly works in tmux. Since I'm prefer to work with it - for me issue is closed for now I guess (dont know for future, just start playing with new terminal). So I dont know, should it be closed or should it stay for reminder porpuses.

P.S. I haven't tested but I guess it will work also with screen multiplexer. Cheers.

Since we don't have an active repro for this bug anymore, and it's possible that it was fixed by some combo of #283/#1825, I'm going to close this. If it does re-appear, we can always reopen to investigate.
