IMVHO that's a more interesting position to scroll to. You could change the `end-of-buffer' command so that you can set a variable that causes it to stop on the last line instead of three lines from the end, as it does now. (I recommend using a variable because I like the current behavior, which enables me to write several extra lines on a buffer without the buffer text moving in the window.) The big problem is: how to make it *easy* to scroll end of buffer to the last window line ... I bind the `end-of-buffer' command to the key, so it is easy to scroll to the position I like. If you change the command, with a variable, then it will be equally easy for you to scroll to the place you want. -- Robert J.
