[mosh-users] Mac OS X Terminal does not allow scrollback

[Keith Winstein]

Hello Nathan,

We are working on adding better scrollback support and this will
probable be in the release after 1.2 (i.e. in 1.3).

For now, if quentin's solution doesn't work for you, your options
include running screen or tmux on the server (and using their
scrollback feature) or piping the output to a pager like "less".

Best regards,
Keith
