Subject: Re: Proposal to improve the nomenclature of scrolling directions
Date: Mon, 05 Nov 2012 06:07:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1TVKWU-0001es-G2@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <83d2zt40p1.fsf@gnu.org> (message from Eli Zaretskii on Sun, 04 Nov 2012 21:39:38 +0200)
What "widely accepted approach"? Most applications don't have names
for the commands invoked by keys, they just use "PageDown" the key
name.
Do they generally agree on which direction "PageDown" should scroll?
If so, that would seem to be a general convention for the meaning
of "down" for scrolling.
