Ah, yes, those are good points.

I did realize that I need to disconnect from tmux in order to stop the
server... that's why my changes had no effect.
I'm sure I've been bitten by that before.

Perhaps I'll toy with it a little more.

Is there a way to add lines to the bottom of the scroll buffer?
I see that scrollregion and cursormove functions won't let you scroll past
the last line (which makes sense)...
so is there a way to add lines to what is in the scrollback buffer so that
it could scroll farther
(for example add 2 blank lines to the end so that i can scroll down past
whatever was previously on the screen)?

It would be great to not overwrite what's already on the screen.

Commenting out the scrollregion and cursormove commands makes it write at
the cursor position
(which might be after (or in the middle of)) any command I had typed but not
entered at the command prompt).

This doesn't seem too bad to me, but does make it seem "unpolished" and I'm
sure some wouldn't like it.
