Mike, I can not reproduce the problem you report with Jqt on display of results at the bottom off terminal. It seems an unlikely problem to from beta-n.
Please verify if you still see this problem and if so, try to provide some additional info. For example, percentage of inputs that show the problem. My tests were on linux. If you report you still have the problem, I will fire up a windows machine and test there.
