Trying BBEdit 10 on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6.8.

I'm a semi-recent Windows switcher, and still in Windows regularly via
Fusion (have to for some client programs, etc.). Most of my editing
has thus been in the Windows environment. Overall I'm very impressed
with BBEdit so far.

I'm looking for an option to have the insertion point follow the
cursor. That is, if I'm at the top of a document, and hit the Page
Down key three or four times, I want the current line to be the top of
the window, so that, if I hit the down arrow, e.g., I'm on the second
line of the current window, instead of being taken back to the second
line of the document.

I've looked through all the preferences, including the Expert ones in
the help (happened to see mention of them elsewhere), but I can't find
anything, or if I saw it, I didn't recognize it. :) Does this
capability exist?

Also, while the Preference window is open, clicking the "?" button in
the lower right results in a "Help Viewer cannot open this content."
error, and then a blank Help window.

As possible future enhancements, there are a few global settings that
it would be very helpful to have as language-specific:
o  Tabs — We use different tab stops in different types of source
files (C++ vs SQL, e.g.)
o  Stripping trailing white space — we want to do this on source
files, but not straight text files (that might contain text data,
e.g.)
