You can use gvim if you really need vim. Instead of screen you can use your tiling window manager.

To be honest, I did indeed try sam and acme, but I went back to vim. I don't want to start another boring flame war: vim is just more convenient for me and it comes to a set of pre-implemented features that I like (and don't want to implement myself for sam or acme). As the saying about "democrac

Sorry, it's a different and incompatible concept. There is no need for less any more (Toggle scrolling with middle-click scroll). If you need vi it's the wrong way. But since you got that far you could also try acme and sam as an alternative :P On 3/23/10, Lorenzo Bolla wrote: > I gave 9term a qu

I can't speak for wmii, but if you make dwm ignore resizehints xterm behaves exactly like that. If you insist on keeping resizehints enabled, I don't believe you'll find a terminal which works like that out of the box. Suma On Sat, Mar 20, 2010 at 6:34 PM, Jonas Bernoulli wrote: > On Sat, Mar 20

Well, resizehints are exactly that, hints. Not an obligation. It's usually the job of the window manager to respect (or not to respect) those hints - it's not something that has to be changed in the implementation of the terminal emulator. Surma On Sat, Mar 20, 2010 at 5:48 PM, Jonas Bernoulli w
