No, 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.
