[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-29822) cli: Typing \? freezes the CLI permanently

[N A (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-29822?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

N A updated ASTERISK-29822:
---------------------------

    Description: 
Typing backslash followed by ? completely freezes the CLI. It only seems to be that particular key combination.
I realize the ? is a special key, but there seems to be some buggy behavior here. Kind of a major issue, but the likliehood of someone accidentally typing "\?" is probably small, so marking this 'minor'.

This occurs whether it is at the beginning of a command or anywhere afterwards.

CTRL+C is unsuccessful at exiting the CLI. The cli no longer responds to any keyboard input - backspace, alphanumeric keys, etc.

Only way to exit is CTRL+\ which sends a SIGQUIT to force the process to quit. The average user probably won't know to do this.
