Keychains not working while process running in terminal emulator

[gboehl]

• nvim --version: 0.1.5
• Operating system/version: Linux 4.7.3-2
• Terminal name/version: urxvt v9.22
• $TERM: xterm-256color

Actual behaviour

I am running some python simulations or latex compilations in the terminal emulator. While processes are running, I can not make use of keychains (dd, wc,...) or, respectively, single keys will be interpreted as such.

Expected behaviour

Keychains are working independently of whether processes are running or idle.

Steps to reproduce using nvim -u NORC

Create and save a file ~/gulp:

#!/bin/bash

GULP=0
while [ $GULP -lt 9 ]; do
    echo "Gulp."
    sleep 1
done
# don't delete this line :(

Run nvim -u NORC, open a terminal emulator (split term://bash) and run the file in there by bash ~/gulp. While running, go back to the gulp-buffer and press d on the not-to-be-deleted line. It will be handled as if you would have pressed dd. Same is valid for wd etc.

Is this the same as #5398?

[gboehl]

Yes, sounds very much like it.

Okay.. then I'll go ahead and close this as a duplicate. Thanks for providing the reproduction steps! I've linked them from the other issue.
