Which program do you mean when you say the good-old windows console and the newer windows terminal?
Others are reporting that vim does not work correctly in the current windows terminal. I just read in the JPSoft forum that the screen is scrambled upon exiting vim when called from windows terminal or cmd.exe. However, this sounds like a bug I reported ~2 yrs ago that was fixed relatively quickly. --rob solomon On Thursday, May 4, 2023 at 10:48:52 AM UTC-4 Bram Moolenaar wrote: > > > I use JPSoft's take command as by command interpreter.
