Hi Troy, Marek, and Billy,

There is a GPL smooth autoscroll available however in CSpotRun that can increase the 
speed when 
doing single pixel autoscroll. However it is not a "snippet", it is a very large piece 
of extra 
code that involves complete redraws offscreen and sliding them upwards, and since 
Plucker 
renders much more than text, it would make the Plucker viewer significantly larger.

It was decided at the time to keep the viewer as small of a piece of code as possible. 
This was 
coupled with the fact that Palm OS5 was around the corner with processor speed which 
were 
supposed to be increased by a few orders of magnitude. On a faster processor (as was 
simulated 
by Afterburner) looking at single pixel scroll, the results of the current compact 
code were 
the same as the CSPotRun approach, without dumping a lot of extra code to weigh down 
the viewer.

Best wishes,
Robert
