[Bug Report] incorrect color scheme after getting out of GNU/screen

[Alex4386]

Shell: bash
local Platform: macOS 10.14.4 (Mojave)
Steps to reproduce:

1. create a screen with screen -S screenName
2. terminate screen with exit
3. The color schemes are strange.

Same Applies to Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS with Secure Shell Connection.

Providing Image for troubleshooting:

What is wrong?
ls (cmdline input) is having the wrong color. That should be white and not bold.

[Alex4386]

Update: Provided Bug is not caused in Build 73 (which uses xterm 3.10.2), Which was the last build before the update.

Likely Update to Build 75 caused this issue.

[Alex4386]

Update: Downgrading Xterm.js to 3.12.2 fixed this issue.
This bug is related to xterm, Closing issue for now.

@Eugeny @Alex4386 were you on xterm@3.13.0-beta1 when this repro'd?

[Tyriar]

Oh nevermind, I saw beta2 in the xterm report. Thanks 😃

[Eugeny]

I'll keep this open - otherwise I'll forget to recheck this when 3.13 is released

[Tyriar]

@Eugeny thanks for trying out the beta build, the reports are extremely helpful 🙂

[Eugeny]

@Tyriar you're welcome, can't wait for the webgl renderer to get released! :) I'm going to roll back to 3.12 in the next release though, the Unicode char coloring bug is too much for the users.

[Tyriar]

@Eugeny understandable.

Yeah I'm having trouble finding time to finish the webgl renderer off, the problem is it has quite a lot of pre-requisites due to the decision not to include it in core (primarily xtermjs/xterm.js#2005, xtermjs/xterm.js#1128). It also just broke because of the UTF32 changes and will need some a little updating to support true color (:tada:).

[Alex4386]

@Tyriar
Yes, It was reproduced in xterm 3.13.0-beta1 (which is this repo does in package.json),
Since It was not up-to-date, I manually updated to 3.13.0-beta2 and checked, and since the bugs are reproduced and I found out this was xterm issue (since this is non-existent bugs at 3.12.2), and created issue at xtermjs/xterm.js#2030

Any idea how this can be repro'ed with xterm.js demo? Note that for me the prompt correctly changes colors for screen, also reliable for detaching/reattaching (from some greenish thing to blue/red prompt).

Has been fixed in xterm since.
