this happens only in this one terminal window
and only the shell is affected, i can’t even type # without it appearing as £
opening this file in vim is fine though!

TIL: there is an escape sequence that makes a line wide (\e#6), which Konsole apparently understands

@nilsding @dancrescentwolf It's a feature of DEC terminals since the VT100 and is there for compatibility with them.
Not finding the hard evidence, but I wonder if this was originally a DECwriter feature they carried over to their video terminals.
