Description

Latest version of Hyper (4.6.1) - since the update to this version every time I click in the Hyper window, random characters get spammed.

Image

This is very disruptive in a workflow, as you constantly need to push enter or clear the line to be able to use the CLI.

This also happens when you scroll, when there is nothing too scroll.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the report. First reproduce the random-character input in Hyper 4.6.1 when clicking and scrolling, then trace the relevant behavior; done means those actions no longer insert characters and normal CLI input remains usable.
