I never said it would be "smooooooth", just that it would look more
acceptable. V *used* to do this, I don't know why it's gone. Anyway, FBlit
solves the problem well, I've found (thanks to whoever mentioned it on
this list).

Fine. That would mean putting my A1200 in a tower, then getting either a
Zorro daughterboard + gfx card, or a PPC+BVision. Both of which would cost
hundreds of pounds that I don't have, and to be honest I can easily live
without a gfx card. I normally browse with images switched off anyway.
Or V could have an option to double-buffer the scrolling, at the cost of
some (very cheap and expendable) RAM. Hmmm.
