the above, for example, is a command that's as a single line in my shell (fish) history, but when i "arrow-up" to load it, and copy-paste it here, it shows up as three lines
<anarcat>
if i resize the terminal to fit in a single line, then it's a single line
<anarcat>
i guess this might be a foot issue
<anarcat>
but i'll point out i also get stuff like this in less

anarcat: that's just how fish renders multi-line prompts - to foot they look like separate lines
<anarcat>
i see
<anarcat>
sigh
<anarcat>
another thing to add to my pile of fish wtf
<dnkl>
yeah, I like fish, most of the times. But this is annoying
<dnkl>
it might still be possible to do something in foot. But since it's all heuristics, I don't know what. Especially if we don't want to break something else
<anarcat>
i swear i'm seeing weird line breaks stuff like this elsewhere
<anarcat>
FWIW, gnome-terminal doesn't have that issue with fish
<anarcat>
alacritty neither
<anarcat>
dnkl: maybe some heuristics are in order, IMHO :)
<anarcat>
i know it must be hard, especially without breaking other things, but perhaps it could be a configurable option or something, to start with, so that people can turn it on and if everyone turns it on, then you set it by default, and eventually leave the heuristics on all the time if they Just Work ;)
<anarcat>
for me it's a bit of an irritant with foot in a bunch of places, actually, not just fish
<anarcat>
i *really* like foot, it generally Just Works
<anarcat>
except for this one thing
<anarcat>
well that and that it's not in terminfo everywhere just yet, but that's relatively easy to fix

anarcat: really don't know what to do here... fish emits a carriage return + newline *on* the prompt line, every time you type something on a multi-line prompt
