+
+Fix project terminals clearing all output and showing only one page (no scroll).
+
+Project terminals run inside tmux, which switches xterm into the alternate
+screen buffer (DEC private modes 47/1047/1049). The alternate screen keeps no
+scrollback, so output was wiped on every repaint and wheel scrolling had nothing
+to reveal. Project terminals now suppress the alternate screen so tmux/TUI output
+stays in xterm's normal buffer and accumulates in the 50k-line scrollback.
