If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; This mode allows multiple buffers to be 'locked' so that scrolling ;; up or down lines in any buffer causes all the buffers to mirror ;; the scrolling. It hooks into the post-command-hook to check for ;; potential scrolling commands and if we're locked, mirrors them in all ;; windows. This allows us to grab line-at-a-time scrolling as well as ;; screen-at-a-time scrolling, and doesn't remap any of the keyboard ;; commands to do it. ;; You can enable and disable this mode with the 'scroll-all-mode' command. ;; Suggestions/ideas from: ;; Rick Macdonald ;; Anders Lindgren ;;; Code: (defun scroll-all-function-all (func arg) "Apply function FUNC with argument ARG to all visible windows."
