  • Yes/No Bar question

    From Mauro Veiga@VERT/ABUTRE2 to DIGITAL MAN on Sat Mar 6 17:12:00 2021
    Hello, Rob.

    When a user alternate many times right/left arrow on Yes/No Bar
    prompt (customized by me to Sim/Nao Bar) this character is shown
    repeatedly ─────────────────────┐
    │
    ┌─────┴─────┐
    [?] Ler seu correio agora? [ [ [ [ [ [ Sim [Nao]?


    How i do fix it, if can be?

    My noyesbar and yesnobar source files uses Ctrl-A color codes.
    Exemple from noyesbar:

    if_equal
    print "[Nao] Sim "
    else
    print " Nao [Sim]"
    end_if



    ... * <- Tribble # <- Electrocuted tribble.

    Your locale has more total letters than ("[No] Yes"), so add one more '\b' to this line to account for that:
    print "\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\1n\1h\1>"

    I think that'll solve that.

    Yes, worked well. :-)

    Thanks, Rob.
