I just checked. TMUX does not insert newlines if there were no newlines in the buffer. That's usually what you want.

Maybe it varies by version, but I get this behavior all the time.

If you are copying from a text-mode app that does its own word-wrapping by inserting newlines or moving the insertion point, then it may not be possible for TMUX to undo that. Copying from shell output like `cat somefile` or `wget something`, however, works like it's supposed to.

I feel kinda compelled to run a torture test now. Just tried w3m on desktop and it was decent, anyone have IE sitting around?

I have a celeron pc with xp nearby!

A bit late, but did you test it and if so how well did it work?

Just tested with WebPositive on Haiku on a T61, and it did in fact load - though it took a long time.

This is what I come to HN to see - what a masterful and cool project. I'm literally dropping my plans today to make a project using this.

Please reply here with the Show HN link. I'd love to see what can be created in a day from the "never heard of it" state.

I'm still working on it! It's a MUD where the challenges teach basic OpSec practices. I switched to Python and abandoned Charm (using Textual instead)
