Hi. Trying to switch from screen to tmux, I notice that the command prompt (^B :) does not use the hardware cursor. screen does use the hardware cursor for the same kind of functionality. I've had a look in the tmux source, but so far haven't really manage to come up with anything useful. I

Hi. Off topic, because not strictly BRLTTY related. However, this game is only useful to braille users, and currently only ported to UNIX-like OSes, so here is probably the best place to announce it: More or less to proof a point, I implemented a horizontal version of tetris using Braille dots
