Occasionally file decoding breaks

[Avi-D-coder]

In this case nvim src/lib.rs:121:23 broke everything, but nvim src/lib.rs:121:23: and nvim src/lib.rs:121:22 worked. Sometimes the trailing colon causes breaks to. The files are standard UTF-8 ASCII characters only.

To reproduce run nvim --> afile:1:1 a file called afile:1:1 will recreated it will be corrupt. If you then run the correct command nvim afile:1:1 you will open that corrupt file.

What does breaking mean here? In what way does it break?

I don't see anything wrong here, you are redirecting the raw terminal output of nvim -- to a new file afile:1:1 and then opening the file with nvim. I can't tell what you expected to happen instead, but there's no issue here.

I'm pretty sure this can be closed @wsdjeg
