I don't know what to do to troubleshoot/fix this... ideas?

mic-e commented 9 years ago

vim is pretty complex; does stuff like the regular prompt/ls work?

I suspect that maybe this issue is related to the fact that openage doesn't set the TERM environment variable, so vim behaves differently depending on the terminal emulator you're using. Which one would that be?

(fixed the asciicast link)

look at dis prompt

bigger window, trying to ls

"asciinema". Interesting.

Well the demo completely fails if your terminal is too small (less than 82x25 or something).

Yeah, somehow it looks pretty broken. The question is, is it an issue with the buffer, or an issue with the code that outputs the buffer to your terminal?
