Hi
I am running a Thinkpad X1, and upgraded from 16.04 to 20.04.
I always use the tcsh shell, with the following setting set prompt = '%B%n@%m:%~\n%T %#%b'
That worked perfectly till now
However now when repeat a command with left arrow up and then use the right and left arrow keys of my keyboard the cursor jumps the line and make it hard to modify the last command.
Any pointers or information would be highly welcome
Thanks and regards
Uwe Brauer

It looks like I see the same problem here when I enter tcsh and set the prompt as you described. However, I'm still on Ubuntu 16.04, and using Trinity 14.0.8 PSB.
But,tcsh is not my 'normal' shell.

It seems that there was a change in the tcsh shell that might affect this behavior the workaround is
set prompt = '%n@%m:%~\n%T %#'
