Hi Workstation pro community,
- Using VMware Workstation Pro 12.5 “how do I scroll in a guested RHEL Linux console command window?
- This is not a new build where I can use the GNU graphics, this is a VM guest COTS build, so it is "as-is".
- The visible work window, contains only 20 lines with no scroll-back buffer. I literally need to be able to scroll back around 250 -500 lines.”.
The searching I've done at this forum seems to suggest I cannot create a nice "scrolling xterm window out of this command window"...

I'm running a COTS installer (bash), which doesn't run out of the box as billed. Its rather complex COTS logic, error handling uses /dev/null. So it is difficult to re-direct all the output using standard cmd-line <> into a file or or | through "more/less".
So I'm hoping that a little -nxv in the top of the bash and turning on scrolling will allow me to debug this beast.
thanks in advance.
