It was thought good to give users a choice (via option `scroll-error-top-bottom') of what happens when a scrolling error is raised. I use the default value of the option (`nil'), so for me the behavior is exactly the same as for command `scroll-up'. But you might prefer an option value of `t'. > I think we really need Sacha Chua to do an Emacs Chat with you. I, > personally, would love to learn a bit about your workflow and Emacs > config.

I've told Sacha that there are tons of others to be interviewed before and instead of me. And I don't really have a workflow. And my config is pretty much the code I've made available here and there. I've used Emacs for a long time, but that doesn't mean that I use it particularly well or in any particularly interesting way. In particular, I no longer develop software (apart from futzing around with Emacs Lisp), so my use of Emacs is hardly helpful to anyone wanting to program: most Emacs users and use cases. I don't use Emacs for anything, apart from playing with Emacs.
