- First, VLT is great - I love it! Now, the problem...
-
-
- ** FIX THE DAMN REVIEW BUFFER -- ITS WORTHLESS RIGHT NOW!
-
-
- The reason for this is that if you, say, ls a huge dir. You then wanna
- step through your review buffer and choose which files to read or
- something (bad example, I know). So you pop up the review window, and skip
- up to the top of the directory listing. You then go to your VLT window
- and type this file. Good. Now, you want to "page down" in the review
- buffer. So you go up to the review buffer and BOOM. It has now scrolled
- down the length of the file you just read. THIS IS USELESS, the review buffer
- should scroll independently. For example, you can't cat a huge file and at
- the same time step through the review buffer -- it just keeps bouncing
- around!
- FIX THIS PLEASE! Or tell me how I can fix it! This makes the entire
- review system uterly worthless for any practical use. I'm using the latest
- version btw, on an A3000.
