Has anyone else noticed scrollbar flicker with 9term?
I haven't looked at the source yet, but I imagine it arises from the
X server actually painting the scrollbar grey and then white one
time for each keystroke.
I don't want to guess at a solution, other than that it could be done
right in 9term by erasing and redrawing a smaller portion of the
scrollbar.
My own window system avoided this problem by having the server do double
buffering -- it gave everything a very smooth feel.
I find the flicker pretty annoying, actually. I'll see what I can do
to fix it, but I thought I'd look around to see what interest there
was for a solution.
