For example, when scrolling through a file list in dired (or sunrise commander): - is it possible to automatically show the contents of the file under point in a second window? But if point is moved, quickly move along and show the next file/image whatnot? - is there a "hold-down-button" to view, and let off button to resume browsing the file list? I currently use C-x 1 or C-x o q approaches, but I usually end up with e a bunch of buffers or sore fingers when going through many files. Does anyone have suggestions? I apologize if the answer is sitting in the Emacs manual. Thanks, Eric
