Given a largerrange, the scroll bar when dragged down will jump back to the top(try ez with a 10MB file). Evidently there is an error in thecalculations of scroll.c that return a 0 with large numbers. Since thebeginning and end range values are defined as longs, the usable range shouldbe much greater. I myself need a range from 0 to ~169,000,000 (wellwithin the range of an int) for my application to use the scroll bar. Canthis please be fixed? -- Dave Gross
