FreeBSd-11.2 tmux V2.7 window buffer

[James B. Byrne]

When I use tmux in an ssh session then the utility program cat
displays differing amounts of text depending upon whether or not the
-n option is used.  Without the -n option only the last 50 lines are
displayed on the terminal window. With the -n option all the lines are
displayed.  Further, the number of lines reported by piping the output
to wc -l from both forms of invocation gives the same line count
notwithstanding they do not display the same number of lines.

This does not happen when using a simple ssh session.

Why is this happening?
