Character drifts in my REPL when using OhMyREPL and v1.9-rc1's IPython mode together

[singularitti]

If I use OhMyREPL (after switching to JuliaSyntax) and v1.9-rc1's IPython mode together, I have the following character drifting problem:

In this figure, there are no characters between the end and the cursor, but the cursor looks like there is a space. Also, the end has shifted one character left. No matter whether I press tab or 4 spaces.

In this figure, there also looks like a space exists between et and the cursor, where there is actually none.

This is especially a nightmare if you have a multiline function and have parenthesis in your code; also, when deleting things, it could get wrong.

I notice that this behavior only happens when you have a multiline expression to type (or paste). While in single-line expressions, it does not happen.

I am reporting from an Intel mac here, but it happens both on my Intel and Apple Silicon macs, both in iTerm.app and default Terminal.app.

Interesting, I'll see if I can repro it.

My settings are:

using OhMyREPL
colorscheme!("Monokai16")
enable_autocomplete_brackets(false)

using REPL
atreplinit() do repl
    if !isdefined(repl, :interface)
        repl.interface = REPL.setup_interface(repl)
    end
    REPL.ipython_mode!(repl)
end

Hi, is it reproducible?

[KristofferC]

Yes

[singularitti]

May I ask what might cause this? Could it be fixed?

[KristofferC]

Well I don't know what causes it. And I don't know why the IPython mode specifically would cause it either.

I notice that original prompt julia> has length 6, while in numbered mode, it is In [1]> with length 7. So I guess there is somewhere a hardcoded prompt length causing the shift. As you see in numbered mode, for 2 digit numbers, the shift will become 2 character long.

OhMyREPL.jl/src/repl_pass.jl

Line 43 in 53fa7fb

function untokenize_with_ANSI(io::IO, crayons::Vector{Crayon}, tokens::Vector{Token}, str, indent = 7)

Here maybe?

[KristofferC]

Nice detective work. Can it be that easy? I'll check it out.

[singularitti]

It seems to work for me. Thanks!
