I use org-mode and iimage-mode to keep a laboratory notebook, and scrolling with this combination is awful. If I want to scan through my notes I have to export to html and open in a web browser to get the right feel. Also, on my tablet PC (Windows 7), every application I have works great with single-finger panning (similar to the way iPod/iPad scrolls) except for emacs. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jesse Wilson Bartels Lab: Ultrafast and Nonlinear Optics Electrical and Computer Engineering Department Colorado State University jessew@engr.colostate.edu On 7/6/2010 3:21 PM, Deniz Dogan wrote: > 2010/7/6 Marcelo de Moraes Serpa: > >> Emacs on OSX Snow Leopard, v. 23.2.
