The xterm manual page says:
tiXtraScroll (class TiXtraScroll)
Specifies whether xterm should scroll to a new
page when processing the ti termcap entry, i.e.,
the privde modes 47, 1047 or 1049. This is only
in effect if titeInhibit is ``false'', because the
intent of this option is to provide a picture of
the full-screen application's display on the
scrollback without wiping out the text that would
be shown before the application was initialized.
The default for this resource is ``false.''
but the code says
if (!termw->misc.titeInhibit) {
if (func == bitset) {
CursorSave(termw);
ToAlternate(screen);
ClearScreen(screen);
} else {
FromAlternate(screen);
CursorRestore(termw);
}
} else if (termw->misc.tiXtraScroll) {
if (func == bitset) {
xtermScroll(screen, screen->max_row);
}
}
i.e. tiXtraScroll is only in effect if titeInhibit is *true* (not false
as the manual says).
