Details

Reproducing the problem: Open a new (plaintext) mail composition window. Type more than one page of text. Press the page-up key Results: Cursor stays in the same place, even if that location is not visible. Expected Results: If page up/down would put the cursor off-screen, the cursor should be moved to somewhere within the visible text. NS 4 keeps the cursor at the same line within the visible window; Emacs puts the cursor at the top of a page after a page-down, and at the bottom after a page-up. Either behavior is acceptable, but the cursor should always be visible on the screen. Without this behavior, one must use the mouse to reposition the cursor after every page up/down.
