[Nano-devel] DOS binary 1.0.4 bug with indent?

[stevenlapinskas]

I was working with auto-indent using the DOS binary in a Win98 Second Edition 
DOS window and found that a character of each new line after wrapping would be 
pushed in front of the cursor. This is cumulative, so that if 

To illustrate:

    Steve does some typing that repeats and 
    wen h 

Here, the cursor would be under the 'h'. If you were to  type more words that 
wrapped and indented, then the effect would be cumulative, more characters 
would pile up iin front of the 'h'.

To repeat:

 1) Open a DOS window in Win 98 SE.

 2) Start Nano

 3) Hit ESC I for auto indent mode.

 4) Hit tab. Start typing. 

 5) At the first word wrap, the character will end up with the cursor beneath 
it.

 6) You can't backspace to delete this character, and the more words that wrap 
the more characters that 'pile up' in front of the cursor.

The screenshot of this is available at

The cursor isn't visible in the screen shot but is located under the 'e' in the 
string "etdt"
