Finally upgraded to the 1.1.7 version today.

I've been watching the 'scroll' discussions of late and while I agree that
we did leave a little too much of the old text on the screen when we
scrolled on page, simply scrolling the _entire_ page is BAD.

Most often, the bottom of the page shows only the top part of the text.
When the entire page is scrolled, only the bottom of that line appears at
the top of the screen.

I don't see any simple solution (and I'm way behind at work). We'd have to
know the height of each line of text to be able to find the top of the
last line and scroll to there.

Maybe the (short term, simple) answer is to scroll (window height - height
of largest font) to ensure we don't split a line of text??

I didn't know the font sizes, so, I changed SCROLL_ONE_PAGE to 130. It
used to be 120 and 1.1.7 uses 145 (height of screen - toolbar).

Now I'm 'fat dumb and happy' (TM)
