Hi,

I'm playing with ReGIS graphics (in XTerm) and have noticed that things 
display differently depending on the line that the prompt is on.

It seems as if Zsh clears the remainder of the screen after the end of 
the prompt line.

If I clear the screen (^L) and then display the ReGIS graphic, the 
graphic flashes and then goes away.  I think this is because Zsh is 
redisplaying the prompt immediately after the cat command.  If I hit 
enter a number of times to cause the prompt to move further down the 
screen, such that it's in the graphic or below it, the part of the 
graphic that is above the prompt stays.

On a whim I tried Bash and it does not seem to suffer from this same 
clearing of the remainder of the screen issue.

Is this a Zsh setting?

I tried searching the zshall man page, and it seems as if all instances 
of "clear" either don't have to do with the screen or clear the entire 
screen.

Does anyone have any idea if this is a Zsh thing?  Or possibly something 
spurious I have in my prompt?

Any help / pointers would be appreciated.

I don't think it's my prompt.  I unset RPROMPT and changed PROMPT to be 
"# " and I'm still seeing zsh erase content below the prompt line.

Any help / pointers would be appreciated.

I get that ZLE would need to clear the screen for things like completion 
lists.

But I don't get why putting the prompt on the screen after the previous 
command completes requires clearing the remainder of the screen.  I 
would think that clearing the remainder of the screen could be done at 
the time that ZLE needed to show a completion list et al.

*HEAVYsigh*

Yes, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and MTA-STS.  The mailing list is not authorized 
to send email /as/ my domain.  No mailing list is.  IMHO mailing lists 
should send email out as the list domain.

Yes, ZLE uses the screen below the current line for things like
completion listings and messages.

I've never seen the original messages from Grant.  Rejected after list
forwarding because of sender domain SPF policy?

I ran typescript zsh.log, then ran zsh inside, control-Led, hit return a
few times, and cat-ed a ReGIS image file.  I can confirm that what you
state happens: the image is cleared from the following line to the end of
the screen.

This appears to be due to zsh emitting a ^[[J before printing the prompt.
I don't know why it does this.  Does zsh sometimes write to parts of the
screen below the current line?

I don't have that in my prompt either:
username@hostname ~% set | grep PROMPT
PROMPT='%n@%2m %~%# '
