Subject: Do you like smooth scrolling?
Message-Id: <2853@c3engr.UUCP>

I have taken the VT52 emulator written in Action! and posted here a year or so
ago and modified it as follows:

1) Added XON/XOFF flow control due to overruns at 1200 bps.

2) Modified the display code to use the display list to scroll the screen and
insert/delete lines for much greater speed (and making 1) above unneeded...).

3) Changed the emulation to Televideo 925 for some obscure reason that escapes
me at the moment.

I intend to post the finished product in the not-too-distant future, but I was
contemplating adding one more feature:  smooth scrolling.  Those four-pixel-
wide characters are hard to read with jump scrolling, but since some folks may
not like it, I thought I'd ask whether the folks out there looking for an 80-
column emulator would want it to have this feature or not.

Please E-mail your responses and I'll summarize.  Thanks.
