(NS r13437) When using the scroll bars to scroll, it is still noticeably slower than versions of Netsurf of 9? months previous, perhaps half as slow (or twice as jerky). Something has happened to the update speed. Can this ever be restored to its former responsiveness, or is it some consequence of the way NS now operates? > In addition, they can now be scrolled using the keyboard.

No, it will now scroll without ever showing a blank work area:-)) I notice, however, that it doesn't clear the keyboard buffer when you release the Arrow Keys, but continues scrolling for some short period depending upon stored keys in the keyboard buffer. But it is not a big deal. Well done. Sterling work :-) -- Cheers Roger If I knew where I was I wouldn't be here
