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: Arch Linux
- Hyper.app version: 3.2.0
- Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js:
- Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: yes
Issue
Ctrl+Shift+K is used in Hyper to clear the buffer, however, it is also used on nano editor to cut the current line. While Ctrl+K can be also used in nano editor, I am accustomed to use Ctrl+Shift+K.
While I can change the shortcut to clear the buffer, I think it might be better to disable Hypers’s shortcuts in apps like nano (e.g. in apps using ncurses or similar).

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by locating Hyper's Ctrl+Shift+K shortcut handling and the terminal input path, then determine whether the active nano or ncurses context can be identified. Done means nano receives Ctrl+Shift+K for cutting a line without Hyper clearing the buffer in that context.
