I experience something similar to this in which if I use any sbt command on the terminal my terminal output is completely broken after. I can no longer see any text output at all, but my terminal responds to commands. I have to reset the terminal in order to make it work again.

This also effects me on both 1.0.0 and 1.0.1

@hntd187 @sthagedorn I think you guys should be aware of https://github.com/sbt/sbt/issues/3453, which catalogs your specific issue. It’s not unlikely that it’s related to this, though.
