Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
  • OS version and name: Windows 10
  • Hyper.app version: 1.3.3
  • Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: everything default except using WSL bash, no plugins (first install)
  • Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on Mac OS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): N/A
  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Is Vanilla

Issue

The Alt modifier doesn't seem to work at all, tried running Weechat under WSL and I can't switch channels because that is Alt+number. Tried using additional modifiers with no luck.

Also, scrolling in Weechat (with mouse enabled) does not respect native scrolling, which means it tries to scroll in the terminal history (not input history) instead of letting the program handle the scrolling.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Reproduce on Windows 10 with Hyper 1.3.3, WSL bash, and Weechat, then trace terminal input handling for Alt modifiers and mouse scrolling. Done means Alt+number switches Weechat channels and native scrolling is handled by Weechat instead of terminal history.
