Description
- OS version and name: Ubuntu 16.04
- Hyper.app version: 1.0.0
- Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: fresh install
- Relevent information from devtools (CMD+SHIFT+I on Mac OS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): N/A
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Is Vanilla
Issue
Since I can’t figure out how to copypaste in Hyper (all of Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-C and right-click make the focus get lost) here’s a screenshot of the issue.
Whenever I type in an unknown command, I get this long strange and technical apt package issue:
Instead it should simply be something more human like »Command asdf not found«, or just the last lines of suggestions with other apps by the OS.

Research direction
Reproduce the unknown-command case on Ubuntu 16.04 using a vanilla Hyper.app install, then inspect whether the long apt diagnostic comes from Hyper or the underlying shell. Done means unknown commands produce a concise, human-readable error instead of the unexpected package-manager output.
