Is there an easier way to scroll? #6257

Question

ctrl+x g helps a lot when hopping between my messages... But when I want to read older responses, etc... It's a little hard to scroll manually..

I'm hoping for something like ctrl+e and ctrl+y to subtly scroll in small increments. Because I really find my mouse scroll wheel / trackpad to be scrolling too much or too little. It's very unintuitive to scroll with the current defaults.

    I'd like to see the scrollbar make a return, however perhaps this may help you?

    "tui": {
      "scroll_acceleration": {
        "enabled": true
      }
    }
    

    Still involves using the mousewheel but it does make the process a bit nicer.

    You can use Ctrl + P -> "Toggle session scrollbar" to return it right now :)

    Weird thing is that on my personal laptop, scrolling the touchbar it scrolls through the prompts history, and on my working laptop, it scrolls the actual output content

    Your terminal is converting the mouse scroll events into up/down arrow events.

    In iTerm, this works to scroll the output:

    But take care that Scroll wheel sends arrow keys when in alternate screen mode to Yes is not enabled

    @rcambrj Yay, compared prefs, and that last thing made the difference. Thank you, kind person! 🎉

    Hi! Is there any alternative scrolling support—like Vim-style (Esc + hjkl), Ctrl-n / Ctrl-p, or custom key remapping?
