Description Arcadiy Ivanov 2021-02-11 14:35:00 UTC
SUMMARY

Urwid is a TUI library for Python. 
Pallete test demonstrates console capabilities by printing monochrome, 16 colors, 88 colors, 256 colors and 24bit colors.
Pallete test works perfectly on xterm.
Pallete test hangs Konsole completely with any palletes other than monochrome and 16 colors.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. pip install -U urwid
2. Downoad https://github.com/urwid/urwid/blob/master/examples/palette_test.py
3. Run `python palette_test.py` in konsole.

OBSERVED RESULT

On any color pallet above 16 colors Konsole hangs until the process is killed.

EXPECTED RESULT

Konsole behaves exactly like xterm, i.e. works.

Hangs on 88 and 256 colors
Comment 2 Mark Qvist 2021-04-09 19:59:43 UTC
Observing same behaviour, but interestingly, I am able to execute palette_test.py correctly in both 88, 256 and true-color modes if it is run within a screen or tmux session in Konsole.

konsole version 19.12.3
urwid version 2.1.2

I can't seem to be able to find commit 96a18a9b7f651e27da99f8b483d84fdb9a1a1e62 in github.com/KDE/konsole. I'm just curious what the fix was. Thanks!

, which was only applied to 22.04.  The master branch got it fixed with a
rewrite of the parser:
