Another recipe:
$ emacs -Q
C-x 3 C-x 2 RET RET RET RET (enough to make the scroll bars useful)
Then `zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz' and the scrollbar will get bigger,
even if the line doesn't span over multiple lines.
In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.5 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2006-05-27 on mahaena
X server distributor `Gentoo (The X.Org Foundation 6.8.2, revision r6-0.1.13)',
version 11.0.60802000
configured using `configure '--prefix=/usr''
This might be considered a bug. At least it is a pity that the different
scroll bars Emacs can be compiled with behave the same way. The Lesstif/Motif
and Gtk+ scroll bars does not have this behaviour (i.e. growing when zzzzz is
pressed, they shrink instead). I know that Lesstif/Motif/Gtk+ has another way
of dealing with overscrolling than the native/Xaw3d scroll bars. I think this
is an unfortunate side effect of that. On the other hand, many feel that the
Lesstif/Motif/Gtk+ way of overscrolling is a bug too. I guess we have to
revisit this issue after the release. I don't think this is so important to
fix before that.
