Hi all,
I'd like to be able to scroll the current message by lines, perhaps
comma scrolls a line up and period scrolls a line down.
I'm aware of `scrollPageDown:` and `scrollPageUp:`, do `scrollLineDown:`
and `scrollLineUp:` exist?
Thanks,
Kai

I think what he means is that it's better not to use the full window

I use the Gmail bindings plus my own add-on bindings.
