Hello all;

I run term (more precisely multi-term) inside of emacs 24.2.1 installed
from the FreeBSD port.  It works quite well, but one problem that I haven't
been able to solve is this.  When I page output the text scrolls two lines
too far.  For example, if I do: $ man ls, I don't see the first two lines
even with an M-v.  After I exit the pager, I can do a C-c C-j and scroll
back and see that they were there, but I just can't get at them while the
pager is running.

The problem seems independent of the shell I use (I tested with zsh and
tcsh) or the pager (I tested with less and more).

Thanks for any suggestions you might have,

Joseph
