There are lots of reasons to use vit in a "console multiplexer" like tmux or screen, for multi-windowed output and detachable sessions, but at the moment, it only SORT OF works; the background color elements do not span the whole line, but just the text. It is useable, but just misses the boat.

This might be working now. A few color-related bugs and a backspace detection tmux bug have been fixed.

The current (1.2) version of vit now has a WORSE problem inside a tmux (-2) session: the BG colors all seem to work now BUT the screen is not cleared of characters between reports, so the on-screen garbage piles up horrendously.

Otherwise marvelous outside of tmux.

Worse is not good (and WORSE is even worse!). Devendra has VIT working with tmux now so I wonder what the difference is. It's time for some version checking. DJP, what version of tmux do you have? Which terminal are you using and what's the version of that? What OS and what desktop environment? Anything else that is relevant?

How did you install VIT? From the 1.2 final release tar ball or from Git? If from Git, did you remember to checkout branch 1.2?

Also, can you confirm that in version 1.1 you did not have this problem (the text clearing)? Are you up for some detective work? I can give you instructions to do a Git bisect. This will show the exact commit that caused the problem. This will hopefully give me an idea of how to fix it.

DJP, what versions of tmux are you using (which for the server and which for the client)? Everything works fine for me with tmux version 1.8 as both the server and client. Note that I'm using tmux through byobu though.

Also see the questions above (I realize I asked a lot. Just answer whichever ones you feel like).

DJP do you still have this bug with vit 1.3dev ?
