Love mosh, but having no scrollback is a pain. I can hack a solution by using screen on top of mosh. They say that version 1.3 will add support for scrollback.

I use mosh with tmux daily. Scrollback buffer is stored inside tmux instead of through mosh. Works great.

I earlier tried running screen on top of mosh. But it did't worked for me. Can you tell how you exactly did it?

You run screen on the server side. mosh in, then screen. Works just fine.

And then you can use "Ctrl-A [" and arrows to scroll. Screen keeps a scroll buffer server side.
