The emulate scroll for no mouse alternate buffer option breaks in irssi

[danielg4]

The issue is that in

tmux-better-mouse-mode/scroll_copy_mode.tmux

Line 67 in 4c686e5

\"$(send_keys_to_tmux_cmd up)\" \

and

tmux-better-mouse-mode/scroll_copy_mode.tmux

Line 85 in 4c686e5

\"$(send_keys_to_tmux_cmd down)\" \

simple arrow keystrokes are sent, but irssi needs those for bash-style history browsing. There needs to be a way to send alternate keystrokes, for which bindings in irssi could then be defined.

Ah, just to understand, do you mean that when you enter irssi, scrolling sends up/down arrow keys, which doesn't scroll in irssi, but instead scrolls through history?

[NHDaly]

hmm.
So one option would be to just have a blacklist to disable the emulated scrolling in certain applications.

Another could be to do what you said, and allow custom keys for certain applications, like a map.

As a workaround, up/down could be replaced with PgUp/PgDn, which works in both irssi and vim…

(…but not necessarily in tmux.)
