Description

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.720]   
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.10.781.0

vim for Windows (official git build): VIM - Vi IMproved 8.2 (2019 Dec 12, compiled Jan 16 2020 08:26:10)

Steps to reproduce

  • Start vim: vim (the one that comes with git version 2.26.0.windows.1)
  • Press i
  • Press ENTER until it starts scrolling the screen
  • (to exit vim): ESC and then type :q! and then ENTER 😄

Expected behavior

The status line stays where it's supposed to be, at the bottom of the screen.

Actual behavior

Every time a the screen is scrolled down, the last line (white status line) is scrolled up, and a new white status line is printed at the bottom. This results in two white lines, then 3, etc...

This does not reproduce if I use the old cmd.exe (started by eg. Explorer, not wt.exe)
