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

Issue

I downloaded Hyper.app right away, changing only bash to zsh.
I was trying to browse my zsh history, and was pressing ctrl - p to see previous items I have input.
While browsing, some characters 'stick' to the terminal screen, and keeps its place even when I come back to the last history item.

Adding a gif to explain problems

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in vanilla Hyper.app on macOS with zsh, using Ctrl-P to browse command history as described in the report and GIF. Trace the terminal rendering or history-navigation behavior involved; done means previously entered characters no longer remain on screen after returning to the latest history item.
