Re: too many commands, "help" output rolls of screen

[Matt Sturgeon]

y don't we just ad a scroll bar, like on the menu?

ie. you use the up/down keys to hilite a line, when you hilite the prompt you can enter commands, the scrollbar tells you ware you are on the page.

This is another instance ware mouse support would be useful: you could use the scrollbar directly (by clicking on it), and you could also have a close button on the top of the terminal to return you to the menu without having to type exit. sorry the close button is abit off topic.
