25 The issue has been resolved so I won't impede it much by being a
26 proponent of the <Ctl-a>+<esc> (or in my case `<esc>). I always use
27 screens scrollback because it has the vi keybindings! (I think it
28 might have emacs one's also, or you can set them...but who would want
29 to do that ;-) ). Also you can search for a particular word with the
30 vi syntax. "`<esc>?word" is always faster than just a scroll :-).
31
32 Just my thoughts. OH and how can you live without using the
33 alternative screen buffer?
34 Either way you are using screen so that makes you cool in my eyes.
