  • That export still leaves a lowercase "m" at the end of every line and at the beginning of every blank line. Commented Dec 21, 2022 at 21:36
  • That sounds like an error in your terminal description. While "m" is used to end SGR escape sequences--see ECMA-48 or the xterm ctlseqs.ms document that Thomas Dickey maintains. Now that you mention it, I see an extra m at the end of every line. Try the command tput cr | od -c. Commented Dec 22, 2022 at 0:52
