I changed my PS1 to:
$ grep -i "ps1=" .bashrc
PS1="\u$txtpur@$txtrst\h $txtred\W$txtrst $txtpur\$$txtrst "And now when I reach about 75% the width of my terminal my cursor jumps the start of the line and overwrites my prompt. This happens in xterm, urxvt and the tty's.
Has this happened to anyone before?
$ less /bashrc

I never put in any \[ or \]. Never come across them.
Thanks to e36freak in irc.
