Package: rxvt-unicode
Version: 9.06-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
it seems that the meaning of scrollWithBuffer resource is inverted, i.e. setting
it to true achieves the opposite effect:
URxvt.scrollTtyOutput: false
URxvt.scrollWithBuffer: true
in fact does NOT scroll with the buffer while scrollWithBuffer: false does, the
man page says this option is not an "inhibit" one like scrollTtyOutput so that's
a bit confusing.
thanks,
filippo

Upstream discovered that they had already done so. I'm thus going to
close this bug.
