Hello back
After I recompiled my emacs to the 24.0.50.1, the problems of scrolling
were solved mostly, but now after some time of usage I noticed a weird
behaviour: Now that I can scroll freely, I noticed that it won't scroll
beyond the position were the cursor is located (meaning that if I have
one result in the line 150 and my text has 1000 lines and my buffer is
80 lines tall, I can't scroll to see above the line 70 nor after the
line 230), so I am limited to scrolling the buffer that is near a result
of the searched text, and if I try to move the cursor away in order to
scroll more or just to change some text around it will erase the search
too (and I come back with the original problem again). Any idea to how
to solve that?
Thanks for the attention
