Cursor not behaving properly
FYI, it might be useful to check if the bug also appears on R-devel as well as on earlier versions of R. That might narrow down whether it was introduced in a particular R version or not, which in turn would be useful to whoever might try to tackle this problem. It might not even be an R problem in the end. /Henrik

I found a strange bug in R recently (version 3.1.2): As you can see from the screenshots attached, when the cursor passes the right edge of the console, instead of start on a new line, it goes back to the beginning of the same line, and overwrites everything after it. This happens every time the size of the terminal is changed, for example, if you fit the terminal to the right half of the screen, start an R session, exec some commands, maximize the terminal, and type a long command into the session, then you will find the bug reproduced. I am on Ubuntu 14.04, and I have tested this in konsole, guake and gnome-terminal.
I can reproduce this, also on Ubuntu 14.04, with gnome-terminal and xterm. If you don't get any response here, please file a bug report at bugs.r-project.org.
