SSH terminal size detected wrong
Brought to you by:

I noticed with PAC 4.5.5.7 the terminal size of ssh sessions is detected wrong.
When I open a ssh session fullscreen in PAC, these are the settings:
COLUMNS=80
LINES=24
The terminal also starts to wrap around when I hit the limits.
but I can work around this by filling the terminal. After I've reached the bottom, the variables are updated correctly.
This happens on Linux Mint 18, with older versions of PAC it didn't happen.
I think this is related to this Linux Mint issue:
https://sourceforge.net/p/pacmanager/bugs/273/
Same problem here sometimes with the size but not always. Additionally if the size seems to be wrong copy and paste causes wrong line breaks that overwrite the current line instead of making a new line.
Try to disable the Linux Mint window effects (settings -> effects). I think it helps here
