[Nano-devel] [request] quick scrolling

[Mike Frysinger]

sometimes i want to adjust what i'm looking at by just a line or two either up 
or down ... in order to do this, i have to move my cursor all the way to the 
limit of the current viewable area in order to force nano to scroll just a 
line (i like the smooth scrolling feature) before moving my cursor back to 
the position where i'm currently typing ... this gets real tedious real fast 
when working in a terminal that's like 100x50

what would be nice i think is to be able to use say alt+up and alt+down to 
force nano to scroll up or down a single line ... the simple attached patch 
shows what i mean (open up a multi-page file, enable smooth scrolling, then 
simply start hitting up/down and alt+up/down).  it doesnt work properly, but 
it gives you an idea of what i'm talking about :)
