Comment (by Joel Sherrill):

 First I think you mean main_edit.c
 ([https://github.com/RTEMS/rtems/blob/master/cpukit/libmisc/shell/main_edit.c])

 Did you observe this on real hardware or a simulator? It is possible that
 the communications program (with hardware) or simulator is grabbing some
 characters.

 It is also possible this is a bug. If this is the case, the code
 originated from
 https://github.com/ringgaard/sanos/tree/master/src/utils/edit. If it is a
 bug, we would like to work with the upstream to get it fixed and then
 update the code in RTEMS.

 The code at the original repository can be compiled natively and you can
 check the behavior on that. The RTEMS derived version probably can be
 compiled similarly if that didn't get broken in the merge. Please try to
 follow up and let's see what is needed.
