Have you found that if you have more than one Bitchx "window" open within a terminal window under OSX, page up/down affects the entire terminal window and not the Bitchx windows (unlike on other platforms)? Using xterm, it works properly and all is good. Anyone know what I'm on about?

Working through a terminal session on windows xp to a linux box I have the same troubles as you but you can resolve that by using CTRL-page up instead.

Also, you can create more hidden windows using:

/window new hide

and switch between them using CTRL-1, CTRL-2 etc

I don't know if it'll work in a OSX terminal session as well, but give it a try :)

Yeah I know you can create windows thanks anyway =) I've set it so that I can tab through windows with control-x.. I don't know why "x" but it was just convenient at the time =)
As for the control-page up/down, that doesn't work OSX as it should =( It appears x11 is the only easy solution right now :p
