Scrolling by script

That works as you said it would but if the selected line is not in the
middle third of the lines, it's not visible.

The following code seems to work:

*i*f the hilitedline of me > 12 then

  set the vscroll of me to (word 2 of the selectedline of me - 12) * the
textheight of me

end if

*
*

12 is the magic number because it's half the number of visble lines in the
list.
