strangeness when overwriting wide characters
Bug report
Hi George
There seems to be something a little odd about overwriting wide characters, I'm not entirely sure it is iTerm2's fault but it doesn't happen in Terminal.app or xterm. Here is a test file: test-file.txt
This file does basically what tmux does when you have a single pane with wide characters and then you split it into two left-right panes - it draws most of a line of
The problem is that the separator │ character is being overwritten. Here is what it looks like in iTerm2:
And here is the same in xterm and Terminal.app:
I expect this is because I am writing over the first or second half of a wide character but not the other half, but I am not sure whether or not this is just something I should avoid or whether iTerm2 is behaving incorrectly.
Let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks
