SFScrollInit was written by Andy Hertzfeld.  Have you noticed that
every time you call up a Standard File dialog (e.g., by choosing Open
within an application), the list of files is in alphabetical order and
it is positioned with the first file at the top of the little window.
Well, SFScrollInit makes the system remember where you were the last
time you looked in that folder with Standard File, and puts you back
in the same place.  So you don't have to scroll through the list every
time.  Doesn't sound like much, but one can sure get sick of scrolling
through the list.
