Do this:

In, e.g., Memo Pad, create a long enough document so that there is a scroll
bar. Now create a long enough line so that it spreads over more than one
"screen line". Now you put your cursor to the beginning of the 2nd line of
the "screen line". Scroll away so that the line is not visible. Scroll
back. Did you see that your cursor moved back to the end of the previous
"screen line"?

Here is an example:

...
This is one line without a single linefeed character in it
|but it spreads over several "screen lines" and "|" stands for
the cursor location.
...

Now do a scrolling back and forth job. You end up with

...
This is one line without a single linefeed character in it|
but it spreads over several "screen lines" and "|" stands for
the cursor location.
...


QUESTION: why?

CONCLUSION: on the Palm the beginning and end of a "screen line" are not
exactly well defined.
