well, this is becoming a philosophical issue, but I'll comment on it anyways:
as soon as somebody gets to decide what is good for other people, the other
people are in trouble.
Again, I am all for emacs doing whatever whoever thinks is good. But let those
who feel otherwise do what they want - otherwise this is like a communist
society: driving people to their happiness with an iron fist.
BTW, there is another annoying feature which I don't know how to deal with -
maybe there is a way around it:
say I am editing a file which is longer than a few screenfulls. I hit the
'page up' key a few times, and then hit the 'page down' key the same number
of times. I get back the screen there was originally, but the cursor now is
in the first line, not where it was before these page scrolls.
Is there any way to preserve the cursor position? Again, pretty much any other
editor I dealt with preserves the position in this situation...
cheers,
