That helps, but the specific problem I have is that if I start typing before scrolling all the way back down, often it takes a very long time for Gargoyle to begin accepting input into the command line. (That is: scroll up; start typing; say “whoops”; scroll back down manually; wait fifteen seconds; letters I typed start to appear.) It may be worse with longer scrollbacks.
Admittedly this may be a problem with my computer which right now is not displaying text as fast as I can type but it seems particularly acute with Gargoyle for some reason. (Wade has also talked about weird scrollback I guess?)
Anyway this is more on topic for a Gargoyle thread; I can at least choose whether Gargoyle or Zoom works better for me.
