OK, time for me to SHUT THE FUCK UP. It was my fault. All works fine with nano and the patched st with scrollback. This morning I re-built dwm with my own terminal pointed too in config.h, but forgot to restart it - so from the original boot-up I was running st - then after I installed dwm every new terminal spawn... so now everything has it's [k]nickers in a twist. Sorry for the terrible noise. All works great Nick P.S. I _will_ pay attention :) -- "Gosh that takes me back... or is it forward?
