I never would have known it but for your two lines there! No? But isn't it clearly documented? Well, sort of. Here's part of a C-h b and a couple of C-h k's: | <M-prior> scroll-other-window-down | <M-next> scroll-other-window | <C-next> scroll-left | <C-prior> scroll-right | <next> scroll-up | <prior> scroll-down | | | <prior> runs the command scroll-down | (scroll-down &optional ARG) | which is an interactive built-in function. | | Scroll text of current window down ARG lines; or near full screen if no ARG. | A near full screen is `next-screen-context-lines' less than a full screen. | Negative ARG means scroll upward. | If ARG is the atom `-', scroll upward by nearly full screen. | When calling from a program, supply as argument a number, nil, or `-'. | | | | | <C-prior> runs the command scroll-right | (scroll-right &optional ARG) | which is an interactive built-in function. | | Scroll selected window display ARG columns right. | Default for ARG is window width minus 2. | Value is the total amount of leftward horizontal scrolling in | effect after the change. | If `automatic-hscrolling' is non-nil, the argument ARG modifies | a lower bound for automatic scrolling, i.e. automatic scrolling | will not scroll a window to a column less than the value returned | by this function. "<prior>"? "<next>?". Why the <expletive-deleted> (shows my age, no?) didn't "they" (rms?) call them pageDown and pageUp? Yeah, maybe those two words, prior and next, are defined somewhere in the gnu-emacs manual, but c'm on, give me a break! Anyway, again, thanks for those two lines! ------- STRANGE this M-prior -- C-h b reports (see above) it bound to scrolling the other window down -- BUT! -- C-h k on it says "unbound"????
