Those are ANSI control codes. phpseclib (which Laravel uses) lets you remove them with File_ANSI.

Sorry, I didn't understand. Where to use phpseclib? Local machine, homestead server? Which file am I supposed to change?

Thank you!

I got the response today. Instead of using the global command 'homestead up' in your terminal, go to your local homestead folder (mine was in ~\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\laravel\homestead) and use 'vagrant up'. Next you ssh into your vm and you can use the 'php artisan' for example.

But wasn't the idea we could use homestead commands at any location?

In fact, I give up. Homestead 2.0 is a mess. I'm not able to set it working correctly. Homestead 1.0 is much better.

I am having a similar problem. When I do homestead ssh and try to open a editor like nano or vi my text becomes jumbled (similar to your problem) and I cannot move the cursor or write anything. But when I use vagrant ssh from the ~\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\laravel\homestead I can do everything normal.

Any clue someone?

I fixed the problem using ansicon (https://github.com/adoxa/ansicon) now it is working great.

How do you use it? I am currently using ConEmu, any way to make them work together?
