Re: BUG: terminal vim 9.0.1506 x64 window 10

Of course vim can't possibly support all possible terminals

My point is different.  It's isn't working correctly on ANY of them.

The early days of Unix coincided with a Cabrian explosion of physical

reeked of late-night struggles and triumphs over frustration.
