Doesn't work on Xfce either. On a virtual terminal thingy (ctrl-alt-f1) it shows a grey background with white text. I suspect blink is only implemented on the Mac's terminal, not in Linux-land.
- baghira 11y agoIt does work in urxvt and konsole (and there's an option to turn it off). And as tempodox said, this is just VT100 stuff.
- marcosdumay 11y agoYou can set Xterm and Konsole to be VT100 compatible. I dunno about Gnome Terminal. Anyway, they default to "linux" for more than a decade.

- erikb 11y agoI suspect it's really not a terminal issue but something about git. Or does a Terminal that doesn't interpret a command print it in clear text? I just get the string back, the same way I entered it.
- daveloyall 11y agoWhat? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code It's definitely a terminal thing. The "bug" in git is that it doesn't strip out the control characters or reject the commit if the commit message contains non-text data.
