Yep, output gets mangled, this problem has been around for a long time.

one of a few ongoing issues with Fingerterm, but I have noticed updates, so happy that it’s being worked on, and we also have Literm as a generally superior option, (but with a bit of an issue with cursor placement).

Anyone know of a way to make Literm the system default?

Thanks for highlighting this @mankir. I’ve logged this internally and tagged it as “tracked”.
