Regarding easy access to the scroll back buffer I recently implemented a copymode for dvtm which should simplify this. Checkout the relevant branch from the git repository or download http://repo.or.cz/w/dvtm.git/snapshot/refs/heads/copymode Then launch dvtm, generate some output, then press MOD+v (i.e. "CTRL+g v" in the default config) to enter copymode. You should now be able to navigate with PgUp/PgDown (without special prefixes). There are also some basic vi-style keybindings (h,j,k,l,^,$,g,G,M) and a simple search function accessible with "/" supported. Start a selection with "v", copy with "y" and then paste with MOD+p. Check out the manual page for a complete reference. Some further testing would be welcome. Thanks, Marc -- Marc Andre Tanner >< http://www.brain-dump.org/ >< GPG key: CF7D56C0
