Re: osdep_get_name() for Solaris

[Nicholas Marriott]

Hi

This looks good to me but I want someone to test it on Solaris 10 before I add
it (I don't care about Solaris <10).

My usual Solaris tester seems to be asleep right now but I'll see if I can
rustle someone up later.

Thanks

Comment on use of J/K for scroll-up/down

[Iain Morgan]

Hi,

I noticed the addition of scroll-up/scroll-down to copy mode in recent
CVS. The selection of 'J' and 'K' for the vi-style bindings for these
functions seems a bit strange to me; particularly since 'J' is used to
join lines in vi.

A choice that would be more consistent with true vi behaviour would
appear to ^E (scroll-down) and ^Y (scroll-up). I could also see an
argument for ^N and ^P, but those are used to move to the next/previous
lines rather than scrolling.

Of course, these key bindings can be adjusted in ~/.tmux.conf as
desired, but I felt the need to point out that J/K may not be the best
choice for the defaults.

Regards.
