Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.175]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.2.1715.0
wsl 1, Ubuntu 18.04
bash

Steps to reproduce

  1. Using a Swedish QWERTY keyboard (not sure if it matters)
  2. Open wsl 1 (Ubuntu 18.04) using bash
  3. Pressing AltGr + ~ lets me later press backspace to erase one character from my prompt.

Expected behavior

To only erase the last character

Actual behavior

mycomputer ~/code/$
<pressing AltGr + ~ + s>
<pressing three backspaces>
mycomputer ~/code/
<pressing AltGr + ~ + s>
<pressing three backspaces>
mycomputer ~/code
<pressing AltGr + ~ + s>
<pressing three backspaces>
mycomputer ~/cod
<pressing AltGr + ~ + s>
<pressing three backspaces>
mycomputer ~/co
etc.
