I'm using Spacemacs and multi-term on OS X 10.11. Preferred shell in zsh with oh-my-zsh installed.

In the Spacemacs shell window, there are two weird UI issues:

  1. Command line never scrolls to the bottom, so that i always several empty lines in the bottom of the buffer.
  2. Command prompt has got weird 4m symbols prepended (UPDATE: per lunaryorn's comment, this got fixed by adding export TERM=xterm-256color to .zshrc. Previously echo $TERM yielded eterm).

Both issues are visible in the screenshot attached. Does anyone know how to address these?

Thanks!

  • You are right. Upvoting. Item #2 is fixed by the first comment to the question you've linked. Adjusting the question. – siphiuel Nov 19 '15 at 14:26

    The empty lines sound like scroll margin. Can you check the value of the variable `scroll-margin` in the buffer? – nanny Nov 19 '15 at 15:06
  • @nanny - you're right, setting `(setq scroll-margin 0)` in config fixes the problem. Thanks! – siphiuel Nov 19 '15 at 15:36
  • There is also [this commit](https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/pull/3546/files) that defines a `unset-scroll-margin` function, but i'm not sure how to invoke it from `.spacemacs`. – siphiuel Nov 19 '15 at 15:39
