Description

Hi! Thank you you for your work! Hyper is great! You rock!

I have visual artefacts (the previous state of screen) while using Huper 3.0.2 in WSL1 on Win10.

Example:

  1. First state:

    image

  2. Type mcedit .bashrc and get:

    image

  3. Exit from mcedit (<esc><esc>):

    image

As you can see previous parts of the screen haven't cleared. And I faced with this issue in almost in every app.

How can I fix it?

Thanks!

Research direction

No source file or test is named. First reproduce the artefacts in Hyper 3.0.2 on Windows 10 with WSL1 by running mcedit .bashrc and exiting with Escape twice; then trace the terminal repaint path. Done means the previous screen contents are cleared reliably in this sequence and similar applications.
