    reverse terminal output

    Hello,

    I have a monitor which I rotated so that now it extends quite long from top to bottom. This works fine except for terminals that are at the bottom. Their command line will be at the bottom of the screen. I was wondering if it is possible to reverse the output of the terminal so that instead of going downwards it goes upwards?

    Thanks.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    That's an interesting idea, but I don't know of any way to do that, other than modifying the source code for xterm or the console terminal program. Doable, but not trivial. It would probably be fairly easy to do in emacs, but you need to be somewhat fluent in lisp to make that sort of modification.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
    Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!
