Hi guys,
I've been working on the code a little more and have found a few bugs that
I need some verification with:
- The buffer scrolls back 8 pages maximum. If more than 8 pages have
gone by, then it should just being truncating it at the top. Instead,
when it gets 8 pages, it is totally cleared and reset to 1 page to
scroll back.
- I'm using a soft cursor, and when I switch VTs, and the previous VT
updates and redraws the cursor I get garbage on the current VT.
I am also trying to come up with a more reasonable key sequence. Any comments
directly for me should be CC'ed to lifter@crosswinds.net, I'm not a subscriber
of tech-kern. Perhaps, though, this would be an ideal time to do so =).
Regards,
Justin Reigle
