Noted. It would be nice if vt(4) also regained syscons(4) feature of buffer pasting with Shift-Ins (right now I have to press the middle mouse button to do it). If you could also allow scrolling with Shift-PgUp/PgDn (akin to xterm), not just via pressing ScrollLock first, it would make vt(4) even more awesome. ./danfe _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
