The old layout also had the benefit of ':help > <S-MouseUp>', etc. jumping to exactly the right line. Sure, I tried changing it back and it seems a bit more readable that way. The attached patch contains these minor updates. Bram: could you indicate if there is any chance this is making it for 7.3 (or at all)? It seems this feature would mostly be used by Mac users (since "all" Macs have horizontal scrolling abilities) and a few users have asked for this feature. If you'd rather hold off merging this patch I'll merge it with the MacVim source code so that it gets tested properly and then you can take a look at it later.
