RE: [PATCH] -scrollbars option

["Harold Hunt" <huntharo at msu dot edu>]

Jehan,

That is an excellent patch!  I was just thinking that we should add this
sort of functionality.  Yes, I was reading the ./ posts too :)

However, there are a bunch of ^M's showing up in the patch file for
winwndproc.c starting at about line 496 (in the patch file).  Could you
clean that up and resubmit?

Thanks for the great work,

Harold
