Important

This issue was migrated from Trac:

Origin https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/4120
Reporter congest (hydrogenbuilding@….com)

How to reproduce:

Use tsch as your shell.
ctrl-o
ctrl-c
ctrl-o

mc gives the error:

The Commander can't change to the directory that the subshell claims you are in. Perhaps you have deleted your working directory, or given yourself extra permissions with the "su" command?

I'm pretty sure this is caused by a bug in tsch. I attached a patch with a really simple workaround that makes the problem go away.

Thanks!
It would be great if you could create patch using git format-patch.
