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: 2.0.0 stable
- Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: gupta-ji6/.hyper.js
- Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): N/A
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Not sure, it mostly is vanilla
Issue
The title of the terminal window gets merged with window controls (minimize window, maximise window, close window) if its length is large. See screenshot below for visual inspection.

This seems like a good-first-issue and I myself would like to work on it, if someone guides me through it. It would be my first contribution to hyper repository. Thank you in advance.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the overlap on Windows 10 with Hyper.app 2.0.0, using a long terminal window title and the screenshot as the reference. Inspect the window title and minimize, maximize, and close controls; done means long titles remain separate from the controls.
