Can't type anything when launching from shell command

[hikerpig]

• VSCode Version: 1.12.1
• OS Version: OSX 10.12.4

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Command Palette "Shell Command: install 'code' command in PATH "
2. Close current VSCode window
3. Open zsh, enter some directory, code ., VSCode window shows, but I can't type any contents in the editor, though I can open new tab using keyboard shortcut 'Cmd + T', or call Command Palette out with 'Cmd + Shift + T', still can't type any characters in the input area.

Tried to start with code --disable-extensions ., still not working.

@hikerpig does the problem only occur when you run the command "Shell command ... in PATH"?

Can you open a file in the editor and make selections with the mouse?

What exactly do you mean by this. Can you illustrate with animated gif:

VSCode window shows, but I can't type any contents in the editor
...
still can't type any characters in the input area

Seems like the problem comes from shell inside of tmux. While launching from plain Mac OS Terminal/iTerm2 without tmux, VSCode works just fine. And I think we can close this issue

I can confirm this problem when starting VSCode in tmux. In the begining it did work, but suddenly I can't input anymore, but I did can delete texts. You can check the gif below @egamma
