I need to read a command line information. Here at work we use the Mingw that comes shipped on Sourcetree.
For such a need, I tried to use the function built-in of bash read, but it does not behave very well if I need to correct the typed text using the arrows.
For example, if I want to type add, but I accidentally typed in asd. I sail a house to the side <=, give a Backspace and then type d. When I have the variable displayed, on the other hand... it gets messy. See gif:
I also redirected to a file and got it when opening with VIM:
So how can I read from the command line without having this unforeseen behavior when using the arrows?
