Fair enough, in a way, but I'd say you can't launch it stand-alone inside an X session without using another terminal emulator (st, xtrem, whatever).

- boomlinde 12y agoThat is true. It seems somewhat beside your original point, though, unless you are arguing that that difference cuts it clear which terminal emulator should handle scrollback
- klez 12y agoNo, my point wasn't strictly about scrolling. My line of reasoning is: 1 tmux is needed to handle multiplexing 2 tmux also handles scrolling 3 if you need tmux for other things already, you don't need scrolling in the terminal emulator I wouldn't say that, by this reasoning, it is the right place to implement scrolling, just that, since it's a solved problem, re-implementing it would be a useless duplication of effort. But in this specific case I'd concede that the way tmux scrolls is not at all comparable with how a X terminal emulator would be expected to scroll.
