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.
-
Hyper.app version: 3.0.0 (stable)
-
The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:
After updating to 3.0 Stable, (also happened previously on all the canary versions, just didn't bother to report it) both clear on bash or cls on cmd don't work correctly. I don't think this is a duplicate of #3147 since i never had problems with it on the 2.0 branch.

It happens randomly, sometimes it clears sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it clears partially like on that screenshot.

Research direction
No file or test entry point is named. First reproduce the issue on Windows 10 with Hyper 3.0.0 using clear in bash and cls in cmd, recording when the screen clears fully, partially, or not at all. Done means both commands consistently clear the terminal as expected.
