Putting screen in the middle is actually the fix for that - Screen has been very good for me at acting as a decent translation layer for misbehaving apps.

- wkat4242 2y agoHuh I never thought of that. Thanks!!
- Aloha 2y agoIts one of the two reasons I've never switched to tmux - the other is habit, I have a well formed .screenrc and I'm used to it.
- wkat4242 2y agoI was a screen holdout for a long time too but in the end tmux won me over :) But I still know screen very well. So tmux doesn't do this well either? Too bad. I'm not surprised screen does it well though, with its long history. By the way one thing that's a bit sad about the VT520 is that it looks really boring. It has a standard "VGA Monitor from the 90s" look. The great thing is that it takes standard PS/2 keyboards unlike the previous special ones. But the VT220 and VT320 looked much cooler. Not to mention the VT05 by the way, that was straight out of star trek <3 It was deep as hell though, no way that would fit on a modern desk. It didn't even have a CPU, it was full of boards of discrete logic.
- Aloha 2y agotmux might work - I tested early with tmux but the last time I bothered was pre-1.0 versions of tmux. Screen supports it well, but tmux is probably worth testing.
