 @item scroll-step
 @vindex scroll-step
-The number of lines to scroll when the cursor moves out of the window.
-Scrolling happens automatically if the cursor has moved out of the
-visible portion of the node text when it is time to display.  Usually
-the scrolling is done so as to put the cursor on the center line of the
-current window.  However, if the variable @code{scroll-step} has a
-nonzero value, Info attempts to scroll the node text by that many lines;
-if that is enough to bring the cursor back into the window, that is what
-is done.  The default value of this variable is 0, thus placing the
-cursor (and the text it is attached to) in the center of the window.
-Setting this variable to 1 causes a kind of ``smooth scrolling'' which
-some people prefer.
