Terminal Autoscroll Annoyance
 

Is there a way I can prevent the terminal from automatically scrolling to the bottom when I'm compiling? I'm using rxvt and it's really annoying when I'm trying to read the compiler output history and it keeps returning to the most recent output :(

Have you never wondered what the scroll lock key is for ;)

My scroll-lock key doesn't seem to work in Linux :confused:

Actually that doesn't seem to work in rxvt for some reason - it does respond to serial commands though:
Stop: Ctrl+s
Start: Ctrl+q

Thanks! You're the man :D

I'll read the documentation more thoroughly next time :o
