Why is my output not wrapping in tmux?
I am currently running tmux within Terminal.app on my Mac.
When I execute a command that outputs a line longer than the available window, instead of wrapping onto the next line, it overwrites the existing line.
What is also strange about this is: if I CMD+TAB to a different application and CMD+TAB back the output appears correctly on multiple lines.
How do I resolve this?

Can you reproduce this without any of your configuration files (.tmux.conf,.zshrc, etc.)? (It may help to test on another account that isn't customized in any way.) If not, post a complete set of configuration files that reproduces the problem.

Why does tmux fail to “scroll” when entering a command that exceeds one line? (OSX Terminal.app)
It is a known bug which does not appear with iTerm2.
