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 1809
- Hyper.app version: 3.0.0 Canary 8
- Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: https://gist.github.com/cdmihai/665bc9ce0770f6ed4d24517bb6e680c7
Issue
Using Powershell, cls / Write-Host clears only the visible screen, not the entire console buffer. In a standalone Powershell console cls clears everything.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue on Windows 10 1809 with Hyper 3.0.0 Canary 8, using PowerShell and the reported .hyper.js gist as context. Compare cls and Write-Host with standalone PowerShell; done means both clear the entire console buffer rather than only the visible screen. No source file or test path is identified in the report.
