Hi list,

This might be slightly OT, but I started to miss the trackpad
functionality I have on MacVim. Not that I use it while programming,
but it could be useful to navigate through long orgfiles that span
across the available emacs width (without needing to use wrapping).
The only way I've found was to actually go to the long line and press
C-e, which is totally not what I would like :)

As a side note, scrolling in MacVim seems to be much better
implemented than in Cocoa emacs. Cocoa emacs jumps the lines (i.e it's
not smooth) making you loose track of where you are. MacVim has smooth
scrolling, not sure if it's pixel based but works much better and
integrates seamlessly with the Mac trackpad. Now, I've already talked
about this on the emacs mailing list, unsurprisingly, most of the
folks just said "why would you want that". Sad.

Anyway, what I would like is just a way to scroll horizontally in
emacs using the Mac trackpad. Does anyone know if it's possible?

Cheers,

Marcelo.
