It works fine in konsole - but not in qterninal.  I have put in an 'issue'
report upstream for qterminal but it has not been acted upon yet. So I am
happy using konsole.  I guess that in time the necessary escapes will be
fixed in those terminal emulators where it fails. The easiest 'solution' as
has been mentioned is to use a terminal application where it does work.
