Hello, I have just found than having this character on command line:

$'\xf0\x9f\x8d\xbe' (that would be a 🍾)

makes the cursor unable to advance when inserting characters (it seems that each character is overwriting the previously entered one, but when checking the history the characters where alla added correctly, although in the wrong position)

Hope that was clear enough, maybe this is already fixed in 5.8.1 or 5.9?

thanks

Pier Paolo Grassi
