Now, before you start rolling your eyes and muttering under your breath, let me just say this: I know what you’re thinking. You think it’s not a big deal, that it’s just a minor annoyance that can be easily fixed with some simple tweaks or hacks. But trust me when I tell you this bug is no joke!

First of all, let’s take a look at what happens when we resize our terminal window in Zsh: nothing. Absolutely nothing. The text doesn’t move, the colors don’t change, and the cursor just sits there like a lump on a log. It’s as if time has stopped and all of reality has been suspended in some sort of bizarre, terminal-induced limbo.

But wait it gets worse! If we try to resize our window again, things start to get really weird. The text starts jumping around like a hyperactive child on too much sugar, the colors become garbled and distorted, and the cursor disappears altogether. It’s as if some sort of terminal demon has taken over our poor little shell!

Now, I know what you’re thinking again “But wait, there’s more!” And yes, bro, there is indeed more to this story. You see, the real kicker here is that this bug affects not just one or two terminals, but every single terminal on your system! That’s right no matter how many times you try to resize them, they will all behave in exactly the same way: like a bunch of broken, dysfunctional robots.

So what can we do about this? Well, for starters, we could try reinstalling Zsh or upgrading our terminal emulator. But let’s be real here that’s not going to fix the problem. Nope, the only way to truly solve this issue is by performing a full system reset and starting from scratch. And even then, there’s no guarantee that it will work!

Until next time, my fellow terminal enthusiasts. May your shells be broken but your spirits remain unbroken!
