Afaik, this is caused by the readline event hook and is not related to
the GUI. It will also come up when using FLTK in a usual terminal
window.
>From time to time I will be batch processing applying patches. The
reason is that applying a single patch disrupts me from my current
work on free software, which is not very effective. My time is very
limited by now and I have to be careful how to spend it. Nevertheless
I am always reading the list.
