Welcome to the club. *hands you your "I have experienced samscrolling" badge* "Samscrolling" refers to scrolling by cursor keys; you didn't say keys, scrollbar, or scroll wheel. Samscrolling is something of a phenomenon in its own right. 9front added another, more predictable but scarcely more controllable phenomenon which applies to the scroll wheel: The nearer the mouse pointer is to the bottom of the window, the more effective the scroll wheel is, until at the bottom one notch on the wheel moves a whole page. I call this feature TURBO ULTRADRIVE HYPERSCROLLING because for those of us with real scroll wheels and too focused on the actual text to remember where the mouse pointer is, it's fantastically annoying. They inflicted it on rio too, months ago, and I'm still not entirely used to it. The one guy who loves this feature uses that IBM mouse with a trackpoint instead of a scroll wheel. -- I'm too old to use vi.
