Package: stterm
Version: 0.8.4-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

* What led up to the situation?

I wanted to scroll back in the terminal console.

It is something that doesn't come by default in st/stterm but there is an official patch by upstream called scrollback as well as an utility called scroll which is experimental to add this funcionality.

However, Debian GNU/Linux maintainer is not interested in providing the patch for it.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?

I just installed the package by default and tried several combinations of mouse wheel, mouse wheel+shift, etc.

* What was the outcome of this action?

The software has no possibility to scroll back.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

Be able to scroll back.
