Environment

Windows build number: [Version 10.0.18363.720]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.10.7810

Any other software? no

Steps to reproduce

I was using a CMD shell for a directory listing. Some names (I used dir *.c /s/b) were longer than the window's width and were wrapped. When I dragged the right side of the window, I was pleasantly surprised to see the long lines "unwrap" ... at least until a couple of them somehow 'grabbed' the next line from the screen and appended it to themselves. I cannot see a way to attach a screen shot, so you can see it on my web site bad unwrap example

If you want to use the exact set of files I was using, get calibre-master from github, extract the files and issue the same command I used (shown above and in the screen shot) with the window only about 60-70 characters wide. Unfortunately, it doesn't always occur, but I got it to happen 3 out of 5 times, with different numbers of joined lines each time.

Expected behavior

I expected each separate line of output to remain separate.

Actual behavior

When the output is "unwrapped" as the window gets wider, some lines mysteriously join with the next (or previous?) line of output to make an even longer line that is still wrapped!

Okay this is the "you print a line that's exactly the width of the terminal, and we can't tell that the line actually broke there". It might be #3088, but I'm not positive

Yes, I think this is the same thing. Sorry for the duplicate report, but I would NEVER have EVER found it searching for size/wrap issues as I was doing. Feel free to close this and I will got vote for the referenced issue instead.

Haha I wouldn't blame you, that's probably only apparent to someone who's been spending his last 3 months working on nothing but resizing. Thanks for following up!
