But you don't need scrolling functionality for that, just a longer Buffer to redraw properly. (Which would increase memory usage of course.. but well.. patch?) I'd really dislike scrolling. Maybe I'm prejudiced because of bad configuration but I always got pissed of when I scrolled inside an active less/vim/mutt/whatever session. What your terminal program than displays is rubbish. I don't get it.. I never thought it's a nice feature.. Scrolling should be handled by the individual program IMHO. cryptix
