Description Munzir Taha 2004-06-12 00:46:02 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux
OS:                Linux

When you type any interactive command in the console (e.g. rm), you will be faced with  
a question such as: 
 
rm: remove regular file `filename'?  
 
Now, if you switch to Arabic and type some Arabic letters then BACKSPACE to delete  
them, you will delete letters from the question itself which is equal to the number of the  
typed Arabic letters. Looks as if something concerned with Arabic being double byte and  
the UTF-8 encoding.

I am sorry for this repetition. So, let's close this one and consider 83236 as the bug report.
