No; screen can't wander around the scrollback buffer without entering copy mode. You might be able to get some use out of some keybindings I put together a while back, though: bindkey "^[[5;2~" eval "copy" "stuff ^u" bindkey -m "^[[5;2~" stuff ^u bindkey -m "^[[6;2~" stuff ^d Those cause Shift-PgUp to enter copy mode and go back a screen, just like in xterm. (I also had to unbind the keys in xterm so screen could see them.) Subsequent Shift-PgUp presses just go back a screen, while Shift-PgDn goes down a screen for consistency. You still have to hit Escape (or whatever) to exit copy mode, but it makes it easier to enter it. -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- i have to admit that i did not do any manual reading or searching the web. -- Sven Guckes asks a question on zsh-users ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
