Print overwrites previous output when separated by tab and time.

[Wrzlprmft]

Description

Under certain conditions, print statements overwrite the outcome of previous print statements.

Reproduce

Run the following code in a notebook cell:

from time import sleep
print("")
print("a",end="\t")
sleep(0.4)
print("b")

This results in a being printed and then overwritten by b.

Expected behavior

Both, a and b get printed (and not erased).
This is also how it works in Python and iPython.

Context

• Operating System and version: Arch Linux
• Browser and version: Firefox
• Jupyter Notebook version: 7.3.2

Troubleshoot Output

Will provide if deemed necessary.

Command Line Output

Nothing that seems unusual.

Jupyter Notebook version: 7.3.2

Can you test with v7.3.3? I would expect jupyterlab/jupyterlab#17369 which was included in 7.3.3 to fix it.

[Wrzlprmft]

Yes, it is fixed. That’s what I get for being interrupted for a few hours when writing a bug report.
