in reply to Term::ReadLine extra newlines?

It sounds to me as if a bare CR, which should just reposition the cursor at the start of the current line, is being interpreted as a real end of line, thus, starting again on the next line.

Could that be what is going on?

    I doubt it. There are no CRs in the strings I'm passing to $term->readline($prompt). It has to be coming in somewhere within readline itself.
