TERM=xterm and TERM=xterm-color lack this; TERM=rxvt does have it and works fine
 |

at least with the aterm and rxvt terminal emulators.
 | 
			
		||||
 |

Note that TERM=xterm does not support colour on OpenBSD. screen ignores this,
 |

tmux does not: use xterm-color or rxvt for colour.

 |

There are the following known issues:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- tmux on the console on OpenBSD (usually TERM=wsvt25) is broken beyond use.
 | 
			
		||||
- cons25 on the FreeBSD console lies about its support for scroll regions,
 | 
			
		||||
  reports are that using TERM=screen pretty much works okay.
 | 
			
		||||
- Darwin/OS X's poll(2) is broken and doesn't support polling pty(4)s; as tmux
 | 
			
		||||
  makes heavy use of this and there are no suitable alternatives on the
 | 
			
		||||
  platform, Darwin and OS X are unfortunately not supported for the present.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For debugging, running tmux with -v or -vv will generate server and client log
 | 
			
		||||
files in the current directory.
