* Pageup/down with fixed cursor position

GNU Emacs 25.1.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.10.8)
Ubuntu 14.04 

I'd like to retain my cursor position (when possible) relative to
top/bottom of window when using C-v and M-v

I'm unable to deduce such a method from the documentation for
'scroll-up-command and 'scroll-down-command

Any ideas are welcome. Keywords are probably all I need.

thanks

Try setting scroll-preserve-screen-position to t.

(I really think that should be the default.)
