In MacOS X, pre-Yosemite versions I could open vi in the Terminal window and scroll up and down the history of the Terminal. The vi lines in this case did not scroll.
To scroll I used the mouse-pad's two fingers up/down method.
In Yosemite this doesn't work. When I try to scroll up/down, the cursor in vi moves while the lines of vi scroll up/down.
How can I scroll up the window?
