Scrolling screen lines, I knew, it's impossible.

There's so many questions and feature requests about use mouse to
scroll screen lines, but until now, it's still impossible.

Before starting this thread, I found two items in todo.txt.

1st:

7 Add a string to the 'display' option to make CTRL-E and CTRL-Y
scroll one
screen line, also if this means the first line doesn't start with
the
first character (like what happens with a single line that doesn't
fit).

"7" is priority classification, it means "as soon as possible", it's
great. BUT, this item added to todo.txt by joze on Mon Jan 17 00:41:55
2000 UTC. Yes, 11 years ago. (http://vim.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/
vim/vim/runtime/doc/todo.txt?r1=1.2&r2=1.3)

2nd:

- Scroll commands by screen line. g CTRL-E and g CTRL-Y ? Requires
the
first line to be able to start halfway.

This one added by Bram Moolenaar on Jan 06, 2010. "-" means
"unclassified", and try :h extensions-improvements, you'll see this
feature will be added "when all bugs have been fixed". (https://
code.google.com/p/vim/source/diff?
spec=svn3259c3923c1ef2ec1783c828828c7f4e728c3f4b&r=de5a43c5eedc537e4dcdcdbddeea496088063683&format=side&path=/
runtime/doc/todo.txt&old_path=/runtime/doc/
todo.txt&old=5232b9862f238a2a109f15527825e5cac1668a04)

I'm not sure what does "all bugs" mean, sounds like, never?...

Best regards.
