I occasionally find the scroll back buffer (which I have set to 1000 lines) a real life saver. When I used to use xterm I had logging to file turned on (with ageing of the files) and that, occasionally, was an even greater life saver! :-) There is one problem with rxvt's scroll back buffer though, I think. It doesn't seem to save *everything* you do like the xterm log file used to. In particular if one uses mutt for example, or vi then a lot of the editing and/or pager screens seem not to be in rxvt's scroll back whereas thay would have been available (with every excruciating detail!) in xterm log files. Is there any way to get a complete history with rxvt? Is there something going on with VT102 'alternate screens'? Is there something I could be doing in the scroll back buffer to see the editing which has somehow been hidden by screen control characters? -- Chris Green ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.isbd.co.uk/
