    Description

      Today I tried to disable the SUB_USERNAME variable in cdk launch config so that I can check if entering input into Terminal view works correctly.
      I made a typo and it turns out that pressing backspace prints out ^H.

      This happens on Mac. On Windows it works correctly. I haven't checked linux.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
