[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59483] GUI terminal emits "undecodable token:" warning with readline bracketed paste setting

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #20, bug #59483 (project octave):

IMHO the simplest solution would be to disable bracketed paste in Octave's
standard inputrc file. It will annoy terminal users who want to use bracketed
paste mode, but it won't be a regression from older versions because bracketed
paste had already been disabled by default, and users needed to enable it
explicitly in ~/.inputrc. That still works, the user's own ~/.inputrc will
override whatever setting is made in Octave's inputrc. I don't see any large
downsides.

Any automatic way to selectively enable or disable this setting depending on
whether the GUI is active is going to be complex and invasive, either by
loading multiple inputrc files or by doing it entirely in new code in
liboctave and liboctinterp.
