The reason is a single missing feature that would be easy to implement in DocView. What I mean is the continuous page mode where you can scroll through document pages without having to use the previous-page and next-page keys. With smooth scrolling, navigation keys like C-p/ and C-n/ on reaching the beginning/end of the current page should advance to the previous/next page. Using the mouse in the continuous mode requires advancing to another page on the page edges. Any opinions on implementing this? Also please consider the following comments on the current keys in DocView: doesn't move to the top the document like `M-<' does. and doesn't move to the bottom the document like `M->' does. But in normal buffers, is equivalent to `M-<', and is equivalent to `M->'. `M->' doesn't move to the end of the document, it moves to the beginning of the last page, but not to the end of the last page. However, as I see in other PDF viewers, moves to the beginning of the last page. So maybe in DocView it should do the same. After rebinding / there will be no keys to move to the beginning/end of the current page (image). Maybe logically suitable keys are: `C-a'/ and `C-e'/? -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
