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: macOS 13.3
- Hyper.app version: 3.4.1
- The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app: Yes
Issue
If the current path name displayed is exactly as long as the terminal column width, typing new text does not start on a new line but at the beginning of the same line, overwriting the bash prompt text. The issue only happens when using SSH with Hyper.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in Hyper 3.4.1 on macOS 13.3 by using SSH with a displayed pathname exactly equal to the terminal width, then type additional text. Trace the terminal rendering and input behavior involved in that boundary case. Done means new input begins on a new line without overwriting the bash prompt.
