losing text:
If I make the window narrower (via xmonad meta-h), the text on the right hand side is hidden When I make it wider (meta-l), the hidden text doesn't return, I just see whitespace.
^L clears the screen, and if I shift-pgup to scroll backwards, the entire line history has been truncated at the minimum width I narrowed to.
ah, I see. xterm's ^L clears :/ some apps are smarter and repaint.
Maybe people can recommend another terminal more friendly to resizing?
rxvt-unicode rewraps lines on resizing. And it does not seem to have http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=347308.
I've summarised this thread, and the recommendation to use urxvt/rxvt-unicode on the faq page on xmonad.org. Thanks guys -- Don
