Description

Like others I am having the terminal refresh issue, but in my searches I’ve not seen anyone else report not being able to get back to the prompt after exiting vim.

It appears the terminal hangs or freezing after exiting vim, and if I hit Ctrl+C, it crashes iSH.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached iSH-2023-02-06-204954.ips.log and reproducing the reported behavior by exiting vim in iSH. Investigate why the terminal does not return to the prompt and why Ctrl+C can crash iSH; done means vim exits normally, the prompt returns, and Ctrl+C no longer crashes the app.
