I'm a lurker on this list (hoping to someday contribute), but more than that, I'm a User. I also tell everyone I know to use AbiWord, install it on every computer I'm asked to set up (my mom and aunt both love it). That said, I really don't like this move view but not cursor behavior. Bugs me everytime I catch it. Could we make it an option in Prefs or something? "Use new/old page up/ page down behavior" Seems feasible Although, alt+pgup/pgdn works as well. Btw, Fantastic work on this project. Never ceases to amaze me. I remember a two years ago writing a term paper that was due in an hour on AbiWord .7.something... and it crashed... and I just about freaked out. It's definitly come a long way Regards, Bill
