I am using Ubuntu 18.04 + Scala 2.11.12 (OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM, Java 1.8.0_162).

Once I open the scala shell, I am not able to see anything that I type. It gets typed

This worked for me!

Ubuntu steps: 1. Go to /usr/share/sbt/bin 2. Open file "sbt" 3. Add "export TERM=xterm-color" right below "#!/bin/sh"

OS X steps: 1. Go to /usr/local/bin/ 2. Open file "sbt" 3. Add "export TERM=xterm-color" right below "#!/bin/sh"
