macbook: horizontal scroll is insane
Author: unphasedCreated Jul 9, 2026Updated Aug 1, 2026
using various terminal apps on macbook tends to emit virtual mouse wheel events. it is well-meaning, but left and right navigation in an app like lf is a very poor fit for very sensitive mappings like this.
My workaround for now is:
map <m-left> redraw
map <m-right> redrawKeeping mouse enabled otherwise is actually very nice:
- vertical scroll works really great out of the box
- holding ctrl switches it to scroll the view
- being able to click on things is great
