Bug Description

The neofetch ascii text is going beyond the line where the user is supposed to enter input.

I've found this on the Ubuntu Cinnamon Beta live environment under gnome-terminal, xfce-terminal and mate-terminal. I've also confirmed this under other distros.

It looks something like this:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ neofetch
            .-:/++oooo++/:-. ubuntu@ubuntu
        `:/oooooooooooooooooo/-` -------------

^^ Notice how the last two lines cut through the user input line.

On zsh the last two lines don't cut through the terminal prompt but are just missing (they seem to appear for a split second and then get replaced by the terminal prompt).

Output below:
