Yes I'm aware of this. But what would be cool is if the scrollbar could be
somehow linked to the scrolling in copy mode.
One thing I can imagine is just filling the of screen lines each time one
changes screens. This would of course create extra flicker as lines scrolled
by.
I have a script that does this bound to a key.
It would be nice if those lines could be filled offscreen somehow. As in
first the visible area was redrawn then the copy area so the user might not
notice.
I don't think that putty's scrollbar action is going to send anything
downstream to the session, but you could potentially detect/hook
keystrokes or mouse usage with the right libraries. If you already have a
key bound to enter copy mode, why does the putty scrollbar still matter to
you?
I can't see a lot of people wanting something like this -- it would mean
sending a potentially-large amount of data down the wire every time you
switch windows._______________________________________________
