The patch fix the scrolling issue stated in this bug. I dont know how to test the scrolling performance because a dont use vsplit.

Thanks Sadrul

Specifically, http://aperiodic.net/screen/faq#how_do_i_get_screen_to_put_things_into_my_terminal_s_scrollback doesn't work anymore. Possible workaround: disable the clever refreshes when there are no splits.

The commit e8d36bf10b784da5d7ba9a503c77e2e4688c6cda broke scrolling of terminal scroll buffer with mouse scroll or shift+pgup.

I tested this behavior under xterm and urxvt.

The screen scroll buffer is not affected (the one you get using ^a]), only the scroll buffer from the terminal.

To reproduce start a new screen session, and fill the buffer with some lines (e.g using yes|head -n 1024), now try to scroll back with shift+pgup, the display is stuck a the current position.

Reverting e8d36bf and hitting shift+pgup the display is scrolled.

The same behavior happens insides splited (v and h) windows.
