Still not working for me. I get: “Password:” overwriting “OVMS>” when I type “enable”. First line of output overwrites command prompt whenever I type a command. Pressing ENTER at “OVMS#” prompt seemingly does nothing. Looking through the code, we send \n, not \r\n, in multiple places (for example in ovms_command.cpp enableInsert() function that handles password entry. A ‘find in project’ for \n shows 11,350 results! Simple_monitor works just fine. Regards, Mark.

This problem of no newline is related to the somewhat tricky way I implemented alert output being written above the current command input line. I truncate the newline from the last or only line of an alert message so that when it is followed by microrl putting out a new prompt, which is preceded by a newline, we don't get a blank line.
I've just committed a fix. The problem was that the terminal monitor discards a newline that does not follow carriage return, and microrl's terminal_newline() function was written to output the same string to go to the next line as it takes for input to indicate the end of a command. We need the input end-of-line to be just a newline character, so that is all that terminal_newline() put out before the prompt. My fix was to change terminal_newline() to output the explicit string "\r\n" rather than the macro ENDL.
