I don't have a scroll lock key to experiment, but it appears that it changes the arrow key behavior. https://www.ablebits.com/office-addins-blog/2018/05/23/tur

- 0xcde4c3db 5y agoThis is basically what the Scroll Lock key was meant for in the first place, but the convention never really caught on, so the continued presence of the key baffles a lot of people. I recall FreeBSD's console driver supporting using Scroll Lock in a similar way to move through the scrollback buffer, although I don't know whether this is still true in practice (e.g. if using a UEFI or drm console driver rather than old-school VGA).
