Description

  • [x ] I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • [x ] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
  • OS version and name: Windows 10 - Version 10.0.17758 Build 17758
  • Hyper.app version: Hyper 2.0.0
  • Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: https://gist.github.com/srchulo/efaf2b7ee07b70f1e0d9f9d7b3bb80be
  • Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):
  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: I believe this is true. I tried to return .hyper.js to its original state.

Issue

Whenever I use Hyper instead of PuTTY, I get a seconds long delay when I hit esc in Vim to leave insert mode. This currently makes Hyper pretty hard for me to use, as using Vim is a real pain.

Research direction

No source file or test is named in the report. First reproduce the delay in Vim insert mode with Hyper 2.0.0 on Windows 10, comparing vanilla Hyper with PuTTY; trace the terminal input path and existing tests. Done means pressing Esc leaves insert mode without a seconds-long delay.
