Maybe it was issuing a screen-clearing command first, which would have the effect of scrolling the buffer up one screenful? If I could get it to do that now, I'd be happy - it would also fix the way it slowly mixes the scrollback screen with the emacs buffer screen over the course of a couple seconds while it's starting up.

This is a drag, because it means I can't run 'cvs diff' and then 'cvs commit' while looking back at the scrollback buffer to see what the changes were.As far back as I can remember, emacs has always worked this way -- on all the operating systems I've ever worked on.
Anyone know how to get this working again? Some ~/.emacs setting or something?
Emacs as a full screen editor, always simply grabbed the screen where it was ... normally the last (bottom) line of a terminal window and worked backwards (up) from there.
