Hmmm, this got a little mangled.
You have your choice of either:
- Creating a huge window and moving it around
with gdk_window_move()
- Scrolling a small window with gdk_window_scroll()
The 32 bit coordinates still help you in the latter case if
you have subwindows .... if you scroll a subwindow more
than 16-bits of coordinates worth, it won't wrap around.
