SET SCROLL MARGINS
Sets the top and bottom distances at which scrolling begins automatically
as you move the cursor up and down. You specify these distances as
numbers of lines or as percentages of the window size.
Examples:
Command Purpose or Effect
---------------------------------------------------------------------
SET SCROLL MARGINS 2 3 Sets scroll margins at two lines from the
top of the window and three lines from the
bottom.
SET SCROLL MARGINS 7 7 EVE equivalent of the EDT command SET CURSOR
7:14. See help on EDT Conversion.
SET SCROLL MARGINS 10% 15% Sets scroll margins at 10% from the top of
the window and 15% from the bottom.
SET SCROLL MARGINS 0 0 (Default setting.) Scrolling starts when you
move past the top or bottom of the window.
o Scroll margins apply to all windows in EVE. Therefore, if you
frequently use multiple windows in EVE, you may want to specify the
scroll margins as percentages of the window size, instead of numbers of
lines.
o If you want particular scroll margins for all or most editing sessions,
put the command in your EVE initialization file.
Note: Do NOT use SET SCROLL MARGINS on DECwindows, because clicking the
mouse outside the scroll margins may produce undesirable effects.
