I suspect the reason is the same as on emacs: scrolling always occurs line by line (i.e., there is never a partial line visible at the top or bottom of the screen), whereas on most modern text editors it scrolls by pixel, so it's more of a continuous transition. I love emacs, but this is one of the sticking points that's really been bothering me of late. On a side note, it looks like with emacs's set-window-vscroll command, you can actually make it display a fraction of a line. Has anyone had any luck hacking this into a way to do smooth, continuous scrolling?
