Can I reverse the stream direction of my terminal?
Solution 1:
I got a rough approximation to your desired behaviour by:
(while read line;do tput home;tput ri;echo "$line";done;tput home;tput ri)< <(ls -l)
So you could make a shell script and put every command through that, I guess. I kind of like it - only you can't scroll down once it goes off the bottom of the screen! Maybe there's a way around that.
read man terminfo for lots of info on messing with your terminal.
