CMUD #backup command cause wrong path direction
 
Dears,
I've encountered the problem in CMUD and ZMUD 6.x above :

When you use #backup command to send the return command in your path, there will be wrong direction.

Here are the steps to reproduce the problem:
1.Set a path .2w3e with name test_path
2.SpeedWalking the test_path by command .test_path
3.Run command #backup and check the current path status by #path
4. You will found the following out put:
[.test_path]
w
w
e
e
e

[#path]
Paths:
test_path 2w3e
Path Ahead: <empty>
Path Behind: .2w3e

[#backup]
w

[#path]
Paths:
test_path 2w3e
Path Ahead: e
Path Behind: 202e


From above output , you can find that when you issue the #backup command, the path behind has been changed to 202e, actually it should be 2w2e.
I tried a lot of scenarios, the symptom should be: if the path use numeric character to identify the duplicated directions in last two, after #backup sent, the path will be jumbled. for example: 3w4s, sne2s3n ....

Is it a bug, Any one have any idea or solution about that ?

Confirmed. I'm amazed nobody has reported this before, but it certainly looks like a bug. I've added it to the bug list.
