Not all terminal/pager/OS combos do this correctly. Thus this Super User post: https://superuser.com/questions/106637 As far as Fossil goes, though, this issue is not relevant. If you want to use a pager, point Fossil at a decent one, configure the pager correctly, and run it under a reasonable terminal program. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
