Or I was trying to be humorous, without using a smiley.

Perhaps, but you cannot linearly scroll through it. PGUP/DN is
useful, but so is uparrow/downarrow. It makes things easier to
read and judge distance, etc.. jumping around one page at a time
is not as easy to read was my main point.

Take it easy man! Down boy, down! ;o)
Features may be there, but they don't coincide with what I was
"whining" about. So they are lacking. I don't argue that info
has 'tools', I just am saying that they aren't what I'm looking
for, and not in a format that is convenient to me.
What is 'convenient' and what not, is relative to the
individual. Sorry for not putting the ";o)" in there..
Take care,
