Re: Scroll lock

[Juanma Barranquero]

With respect to scrolling, etc., one comment (or question, I'm not sure).

I've been using for years Mikael Sjödin's pager.el (available at
http://user.it.uu.se/~mic/pager.el).  It's a tiny module, just five
short functions, and its main advantage is that allows you to do
page-down/page-up and the cursor is back to where it was, column and
all (i.e., it has sort of a `temporary-goal-column', just for paging
and scrolling). That's much more intuitive to me that cursor going
always to the beginning of line. It also has "line scrolling"
functions.

So the comment/question is: could this functionality (not necessarily
pager.el) be included in Emacs, or it is already there and I missed
it?

(Note: currently, the line scrolling functions of the pager.el
available on the website do not work; they move the cursor *and*
scroll the buffer; but the fix is trivial).
