Hi Everyone,

Glad to see I wasn't the only one programming on Christmas day!

Can someone tell me what the Style Guide has to say on the subject of
Page Up / Page Down keystrokes?

I've just written a little hack to provide better wheelmouse support
(on Christmas Day and Boxing Day - what a party animal!)
It works with just about any program which uses either standard
scrollbars or responds to cursor up/down keystrokes. Multiview seems
to use shift-up/down to scroll a complete page at a time, but YAM's
viewer seems to use alt-up/down.

Can someone tell me which is `correct'?

All the best,
