My least favorite thing about Hyper was whenever you split a window horizontally you would lose your cursor because it would be hidden "behind" the split pane above it, and then you would have to hit CTRL+C like 20 times or force some output to the screen. I opened an issue for this 2 months ago[0] and the team hasn't responded yet. I'm about ready to call it quits with Hyper (ConEmu has its own set of even worse bugs). The problem with Terminus is it currently has no support for splitting windows, so if you want that behavior you would have to use tmux. Although now with Windows 18.03+ being out, tmux sessions persist after closing your terminal so maybe that's the best way to handle splitting windows. [0]: https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/3258
