ppear_ to be scrolling fast, it skips _many_ screenfuls. This is because text rendering is so slow (or not buffered) that it skips many screenfuls and gives the appearance that it has scrolled rapidly. Try scrolling on any native program such as TextEdit or Preview and you will see vastly more useful scrolling. Jerry

No misplaced cursor. This scroll rate is between what I measured for 2.0.0 and 2.0.2 using the special preference file line. Subjectively, for me, the somewhat slower difference for 2.1svn puts the experience back into "painful" regime, but it is still better than 2.0.2 without the special preference file line. Jerry

placement for long lines should be one consequence.) I've added the line that you suggest and the scrolling is improved--much like or exactly like 2.0.1 scrolling that I commented on earlier in this thread. And I see no problem with an incorrectly placed cursor. Jerry Stephan
