Unable to get Terminal Size / Environment variable COLUMNS / LINES not set

[JoedowJoedow]

First, big thank to the work of Morten.

Second, I am running into following issue, the Debug Console shows following warning:

Unable to get Terminal Size. The Win32 GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo call didn't work. The COLUMNS and LINES environment variables didn't work. at C:/Programs/Strawberry/perl/vendor/lib/Term/ReadLine/readline.pm line 410.
at C:/Programs/Strawberry/perl/vendor/lib/Term/ReadKey.pm line 462.

For my point an dedicated setting of the environment variables worked (launch.json):
"env": { }, => replaced by => "env": { "COLUMNS":80, "LINES":80 },

Can this be setup when vscode-perl-debug is installed?

Kind regards

Thanks, Interesting, we could perhaps set some default size - what terminal are you using? Cmd/ps/wt?

export TERM=dumb before executing perl -d will silence this problem.
