    VersaTerm 3.0, the March 21 1987 version allows the user to scroll by 
using the following keyboard equivalents:
  Command - uparrow     move up one screenfull
  Command - downarrow   move down one screenfull
  Command - leftarrow   move the thumb to the top of the scrollbar
  Command - downarrow   move the thumb to the bottom of the scrollbar

  I find these equivalents to be excellent. Personally I wish all programs
had similar equivalents.
