Steps to reproduce

nvim -nu

15sp|term
ls -la
<C-\><C-N> to get back to normal mode
<C-w>o

You will see the blackbox

Expected behavior

The black box is not rendered

Actual behavior

I cannot replicate this with kitty on linux however that is not surprising.

Unfortunately I don't have access to macos; could you give this a try @gegoune ?

FYI terminal return to normal default is <C-\><C-N> (I'm a terminal newbie)

[alex-courtis]

Does this occur with any other terminals @jugarpeupv ?

[jugarpeupv]

@alex-courtis Yes, this is iterm

And this is alacritty

And i also reproduced it with a minimal config

Minimal config:

nvim -nu /tmp/nvim-tmp.lua

vim.g.loaded_netrw = 1
vim.g.loaded_netrwPlugin = 1

vim.cmd [[set runtimepath=$VIMRUNTIME]]
vim.cmd [[set packpath=/tmp/nvt-min/site]]
local package_root = "/tmp/nvt-min/site/pack"
local install_path = package_root .. "/packer/start/packer.nvim"
local function load_plugins()
  require("packer").startup {
    {
      "wbthomason/packer.nvim",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-tree.lua",
      "nvim-tree/nvim-web-devicons",
      -- ADD PLUGINS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
    },
    config = {
      package_root = package_root,
      compile_path = install_path .. "/plugin/packer_compiled.lua",
      display = { non_interactive = true },
    },
  }
end
if vim.fn.isdirectory(install_path) == 0 then
  print "Installing nvim-tree and dependencies."
  vim.fn.system { "git", "clone", "--depth=1", "https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim", install_path }
end
load_plugins()
require("packer").sync()
vim.cmd [[autocmd User PackerComplete ++once echo "Ready!" | lua setup()]]
vim.opt.termguicolors = true
vim.opt.cursorline = true

-- MODIFY NVIM-TREE SETTINGS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
_G.setup = function()
  require("nvim-tree").setup {}
end

-- UNCOMMENT this block for diagnostics issues, substituting pattern and cmd as appropriate.
-- Requires diagnostics.enable = true in setup.
--[[
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
  pattern = "lua",
  callback = function()
    vim.lsp.start { cmd = { "lua-language-server" } }
  end,
})
]]

[gegoune]

Can't replicate with iterm2.

[jugarpeupv]

Just reproduced it with nvim -nu /tmp/nvim-tmp.lua in iterm2

[gegoune]

Must be something else in your configuration. Try without shell and terminal configurations.

[jugarpeupv]

Okey i will try and let you know, thank you @gegoune

[jugarpeupv]

@gegoune i have tried using bash instead of zsh, removing all env variables, changing $TERM. But still reproducing it with iterm, kitty and alacritty

Only if i use default Terminal.app i do not reproduce it, with Terminal.app using my default zsh or bash config, it works well with both, with the minimal example i provided and with my neovim config

I have no idea what could be, what i have noticed is with Terminal.app if i open neovim with or without my personal config, the colors are missing, but i dont know why

[gegoune]

Can you reproduce it without ls -la step?

[jugarpeupv]

@gegoune no, only if a run a command in the term buffer

It might be related to the terminal width?

[gegoune]

It doesn't look like provided screenshots are from minimal reproduction configuration.
Also:

• make sure ls is not aliased just in case
• try different directory
• try with configuration as per your original post
