Terminal windows are one of developer's most important tool. It's a real pain that the terminal program (and all it wonderful open windows with important stuff) dies just because it should print binary data.
In a remote ssh session i did a wget for a program at sorceforge which resulted in the file strace-4.5.18.tar.bz2?use_mirror=dfn.
Well, the usual question ist it a bz2 or just a referer? I did cat strace-4.5.18.tar.bz2?use_mirror=dfn and gnome-terminal crashed.

System here ubuntu karmic 64bit.
