Here's and idea that is so useful I'm almost certain someone must have
implemented it. The various editors and word processors I've seen
running - I think on MaciIntosh - have the ability to browse thru the
file by moving a little "slide bar" on the side of the display-window.
(The slide bar is "grabbed" by placing the mouse's arrow over it,
clicking, and sliding it up and down.) Couldn't a general paginator be
written using the same technique for scrolling back and forth through
the file?  (Have I described this adequately?)

If you've seen something like this for the Amiga let me know.
Thanks!
