Okay, if no one knows how to make zenity --text-info auto-scroll, what other suggestions would you have for displaying output of a shell script that is able to show the output of the current operation but with the option to scroll up to see previous lines?
As an example of what I have in mind, I use rsync to make file backups and pipe the output into zenity (--text-info) to show what is being done. The only problem is that you have to keep scrolling down manually to see the last entry, which is not very convenient. Thanks for any help.
